Are you looking for ways to fill workforce gaps to assist your organization's delivery of public health services? Did you know CDC has a unique program that places motivated early-career public health professionals with public health organizations?
CDC's Public Health Associate Program (PHAP) helps recent college graduates jump-start their careers in public health with a CDC-funded two-year fellowship that offers hands-on, real-life experience in the day-to-day operations of public health programs in local communities. PHAP opportunities are also available with rural-serving organizations to help address the public health needs in rural communities.
TA calls are open to all organizations interested in applying to host a CDC public health associate in early 2025. Discussion topics include new resources for host organizations to use when applying and an overview of the updated application system.
The rural host site sessions are for rural-serving organizations interested in applying to host a CDC public health associate in early 2025. These calls will feature a panel of rural-serving PHAP host site supervisors who will share their experience applying to host an associate.
