Public Health Review


Oct 12, 2023

Public health has a workforce problem: the demand for a new generation of public health practitioners is higher than ever, but health agencies are having a hard time filling positions, either due to funding or lack of visibility. Luckily, there are solutions to bridge fresh graduates to public health careers. In this episode of Public Health Review, Dr. JP Leider from the University of Minnesota and Dr. Heather Krasna of Columbia University spoke with ASTHO about solutions to recruit new public health professionals and the partnerships forming around that endeavor.

Guests:

JP Leider, PhD: Director, Center for Public Health Systems, University of Minnesota School of Public Health

Heather Krasna, PhD: Associate Dean, Career and Professional Development, Columbia University School of Public Health
