Empowering Policymakers to Become Supporters of and Invest in Public Health: A Campaign and Resource Guide

Empowering Policymakers to Become Supporters of and Invest in Public Health

In response to the great need for public health communications tools, we are pleased to announce that ASPPH, and our newly formed Marketing and Communications Section, are launching a public health awareness resource guide aimed at increasing support for investments in public health.

In this resource guide, we provide key messaging and resources that ASPPH members and other schools and programs of public health can use when talking with the public, as well as local and federal policymakers, to advocate for sustained public health investments.

Academic institutions of public health play a vital role in advancing health in their communities, including partnering with state and local health departments, community health practice programs, and research collaborations. We believe that investing in public health is investing in the health and well-being of our communities.

The need for sustained public health funding has never been greater than in this era of disinformation, a significant public health threat itself. We urge you to join us in this advocacy effort to create a healthier world by downloading and using our resource guide.
