PHPartners.org: Covering Public Health Areas Extensively
Partners in Information Access for the Public Health Workforce (PHPartners.org), a collaborative online effort of many national public health and related organizations and agencies (i.e. APHA, ASPH, AHRQ, NLM, NACCHO, etc.), contains a compilation of funding opportunities to improve the public’s health. And this is just one of the areas it covers extensively. The other areas include linking users to resources in: health promotion; journal literature, data tools, and statistics; health policy and legislation; career opportunities and professional development; education & training; and current public health news. The Web site also includes links to published literature related to the Healthy People 2010 focus areas.
The mission of the collaboration, according to their website and sponsoring agencies, is to “help the public health workforce find and use information effectively to improve and protect the public’s health.”
