US Surgeon General just walked into our Executive Board meeting. APHA is a go-to and aren't we thrilled to be in partnership with Surgeon General.

"We have different levers to impact public health. Thank you APHA for your work". #APHA2019

Dr. Adams was AMAZING. He asked us the introduce ourselves and he engaged with each and every one of us in a unique and personal way.

So proud of my friend Lisa Carlson the new APHA President.

The amazing Lisa M Carlson calls for a true interdisciplinary engagement approach to public health, APHA is in great hands next year! #APHA2019

Thank you so much, APHA members, public health colleagues, supporters & friends! #APHA2019 was amazing because of you. See you in San Francisco for #APHA2020! (Mark your calendar: The call for abstracts opens in December.)

We are lucky to have Sami on the team. Looking forward to big things from all of these amazing leaders.

A prof did that for me years ago. I felt so honored affirmed and proud. And I learned so much about the process. DO IT!
