Coalitions and Committees

By participating in several coalitions, ACPM is able to more closely monitor policy activities of federal agencies and national organizations in areas of interest to preventive medicine and more easily form strategic alliances with these organizations.

The Coalitions in which ACPM participates or supports include:

Effective National Action to Control Tobacco (ENACT)
Partnership for Prevention
Friends of HRSA
CDC Coalition
Doctors Against Handgun Injury
Health Professions and Nursing Education Coalition
Coalition for Health Funding
AAMC Ad Hoc Group for Medical Research Funding
Friends of NIOSH
Friends of AHRQ
Children's Environmental Health Network
National Council on Folic Acid
National Alliance for Nutrition and Activity

Through Coalition meetings, sign on letters and coordinated Capitol Hill visits, ACPM remains a visible member of the public health community as it helps to fight for public health and prevention dollars. In addition, ACPM staff participate in a variety of listservs and electronic discussion groups to stay abreast and contribute to the national debate around policy issues.
