PPHA hosts webinars and other events throughout the year to convene partners and expand knowledge and resources. We partner with various public health voices and programs to drive engagement of public health students and professionals across Pennsylvania.
Strengthening Collaboration Through Communication Webinar
Strong partnerships start with strong communication. Join us for an engaging webinar exploring how effective communication builds trust, strengthens collaboration, and drives impact across public health, healthcare, media, and community settings. Hear from guest speakers Cheryl Bettigole, MD, MPH, from the Penn Center for Public Health and Jeffrey Stover, MPH, Director of Community Relations at the Virginia Department of Health, as they share real-world insights, discuss common communication challenges, and offer strategies for developing authentic, inclusive, and community-centered partnerships.
Designing Success Stories: Communicating the Impact of Public Health Work
Great public health work deserves to be seen. Join Chloe Lake for Designing Success Stories, where PHIG partners will learn how to turn their public health work into meaningful stories that highlight the impact of their programs. Through data, real-world examples, and personal experiences, attendees will walk away with practical tools to share their successes and communicate the value of their work.
Food and Nutrition Policy Discussion: Considerations for Nutrition Security Today & Tomorrow
Policy has the potential to improve health and well-being by making healthy choices easier for everyone. Join policy experts from the Food Research & Action Center in a conversation of some key food security and nutrition-related policy updates that are shaping community nutrition education and food security efforts in Pennsylvania now and into the future.
Physicians for Social Responsibility Pennsylvania (PSR PA) is partnering with the Alliance for Heat Resilience and Health to support Heat Safety Week and engage partners across the state in raising awareness and advancing action. As extreme heat becomes more frequent and severe, it remains a leading—yet often underrecognized—public health threat, disproportionately impacting older adults, outdoor workers, and low-income communities.
