In addition to attending town hall meetings this year, APHA would like for you to share a story about why public health funding is important in your community or state. Preferably, the funding would come from one of these three sources:

1. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

2. Health Resources and Services Administration

3. Prevention and Public Health Fund

 Examples can provide:

·         An approximate estimate of the amount of the funding received

·          Location of the program (City, state)

·         A summary of the program/intervention (PH issue and intervention being used)

·         Any examples of positive outcomes to date

Make all submissions to http://www.apha.org/advocacy/tips/stories.htmor. For more information,  email us at phact@apha.org.

Thanks for taking action to protect public health!
