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 submission to http://www.apha.org/advocacy/tips/stories.htm or email us at phact@apha.org.
Thanks for taking action to protect public health!
