Identifying Trusted Public Health Information for Your Communications


Public health depends on accurate, accessible health information to produce content that keeps communities up to date.

With changes in data collection and reporting across government sites, the United States’ withdrawal from the World Health Organization, and conflicting guidance at federal and local levels, public health communicators are facing increasing challenges in sourcing credible, trustworthy science information and data.

Once the data is sourced, there is an additional hurdle: communicating why that data matters and why communities should trust it.

This webinar features public health leaders, analysts, and communicators sharing tips for identifying trusted sources and communicating data, from outbreak responses to community campaigns.

What You’ll Learn

  • Methods and examples of how to vet sources for accuracy and credibility
