National Sign-On Letter to Protect Public Health Education

NADrPH co-sponsored and helped elevate a national sign-on letter signed by thousands of public health professionals, educators, and students calling on federal policymakers to recognize public health degrees as professional degrees. The letter documented workforce shortages, state and local job requirements, and accreditation standards to demonstrate why financial aid access for MPH and DrPH students is essential to maintaining the public health workforce and protecting community health.
