Advocacy is a catalyst for social change and plays a vital role in advancing public health by influencing policy and addressing health disparities. By empowering communities with intentional education, skills-building, and collaborative engagement regarding public health issues at local, state, and national levels, we can foster sustainable, equity-driven change. This webinar will demonstrate how accessible, interactive advocacy training can equip individuals and organizations with the tools to take informed action, demystify advocacy processes, and mobilize communities to become impactful advocates for public health.
