MEMBER CONVERSATION
Think through the work with people who understand it
Member Strategy Forums are facilitated conversations where AHEA members can examine current challenges, compare approaches, and think more clearly about what to do next.
Each forum centers on a focused question, changing condition, or practical challenge affecting people across public health and health equity.
These are not formal trainings or open-ended networking sessions. They are structured opportunities to bring experience into conversation, learn from different perspectives, and leave with useful ideas for navigating the work.
What to expect
A focused topic
Each forum is organized around a timely question or challenge rather than a broad discussion agenda.
Facilitated conversation
AHEA provides structure and guiding questions while creating space for members to contribute their own experience and perspective.
Practical value
Participants may leave with new language, approaches, connections, or questions that help them move their work forward.
Topics shaped by the moment
Responding to cuts in public health programs and funding
Sustaining research amid reduced grants and institutional support
Navigating layoffs, hiring freezes, and organizational restructuring
Forum topics may address:
Communicating across changing audiences and environments
Protecting programs, partnerships, and community trust
Repositioning professional experience for evolving roles
Topics will evolve as conditions and member priorities change.
