AB  - More  than  a  decade  ago,  I  was  pleased  to  lead  a  group  of  public  health  nurses  in  Wisconsin  in  designing  a  project  that  aimed  to  connect  nurse  educators  and  practitioners  to  improve  public  health  nursing  practice  and  education  in  our  state.  For  inspiration  and  best  practices,  we  needed  to  journey  no  farther  than  our  neighboring  state  of  Minnesota.  We  purposefully  took  a  “follow-the-leader”  approach  in  adopting  or  adapting  many  collaborative  education  and  practice  improvement  strategies  pioneered  in  Minnesota  for  our  Linking  Education  and  Practice  for  Excellence  in  Public  Health  Nursing  (LEAP  Project).  Throughout  the  6  years  of  the  LEAP  Project,  we  often  looked  to  public  health  nursing  leaders  in  Minnesota  for  guidance  because  they  clearly  understood  the  processes  and  challenges  of  academic-practice  collaboration  and  of  contemporary  public  health  nursing  practice  and  education.  I  clearly  recall  the  “Minnesota-nice”  generosity  of  the  outstanding  faculty  and  public  health  nurse  members  of  the  Henry  Street  Consortium  in  sharing  their  wisdom  on  academic-practice  collaboration  when  we  consulted  with  them  during  a  groundbreaking  international  public  health  nursing  conference  held  in  St.  Paul  in  2011.  In  many  ways,  the  Henry  Street  Consortium  epitomizes  the  best  of  the  best  practices  for  academic-practice  partnership  and  sustainable  efforts  toward  improving  public  health  education  and  practice.
