Our Washington DC Chapter was formed in 2019 and is organizing public health workers in the Washington DC area to take action on federal-level policy and social justice issues that impact health and equity by showing up visibly as public health workers. We partner with national organizations and campaigns to support their work through our national network and the Washington DC Chapter allows us to take our national work to the streets in the US capital. Washington DC Chapter members are also supporting local and state campaigns in the DC Metro Area. Follow the Washington DC Chapter on Twitter.
Chapter meetings are every other Monday at 5pm ET. Join the Washington DC Chapter to get meeting invites and to get involved.
