Legislative advocacy

Aside from providing educational materials and opportunities, Let's Learn About Public Health! also advocates for legislative reform in regards to elementary public health education standards, because public policy is the best way to enact long-lasting and effective change.

Upcoming plans:

For our next steps in the fight for legislative reform, Let's Learn About Public Health! has plans to:

​

  1. Speak at the California State Board of Education to advocate for the amendment of existing elementary health curricula to include more public health standards

  2. Work with a local Congressperson to create and pass a bill about elementary public health education

​

Stay tuned for updates or opportunities to get involved in these endeavors!
