APHA ADVOCACY IN ACTION
Meeting with your members of Congress: Meeting with your members of Congress, either in Washington, D.C., or in your state, is an effective way to share your support for public health programs. APHA has prepared sample email meeting requests, materials to bring to your meeting, Frequently Asked Questions and more!
Speak for Health: APHA's Speak for Health campaign mobilizes its members, affiliates and other advocates to educate their members of Congress on important public health issues that build healthy communities.
Coalitions: APHA coordinates two coalitions that advocate for fully funding public health programs and services at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Health Resources and Services Administration.
