Effective Advocacy Resource


If you haven’t seen it yet, National SOPHE has recently created a comprehensive guide to Effectively Educating State and Local Policy Makers.  It should be a nice resource for many of you.  Additionally, Ohio is highlighted in the Case Studies Chapter!   This chapter presents a variety of case studies featuring or in collaboration with health educators who participated in the SOPHE State Health Policy Institutes (SHPI).

 The case studies were carefully chosen for this guide to include SHPI participants who have been actively implementing their policy education action plans.  Congratulations to Heather Vilvens for submitting one of just 4 case studies to be included!

 The SHPI program was very selective, choosing just 44 participants over a 4 year period.  Ohio SHPI representatives include Kristen Frame, Heather Vilvens, Jennifer Scofield, Beth Canfield-Simbro.  Congratulations and thanks to all of all you for putting Ohio in the spotlight!  We are lucky to have so many public policy experts in the state!
