If you are interested in becoming involved in any way, please e-mail the appropriate committee chair or the Nominations Committee Chair.

How else can you get involved in APHA?

Students can also get involved in APHA outside of the Student Assembly. We encourage you to contact the leadership of your section, special interest group, or caucus leadership to inquire about opportunities for student involvement.

Students can also become involved in their state affiliates as well. Many state affiliates have annual conferences and much more for students. Click here to find your state affiliate and join today!
