This resource round-up aims to help local health departments and healthcare providers respond to and communicate about the recent outbreaks of measles, including messaging to encourage vaccine uptake behaviors.
NACCHO, with support from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is pleased to provide two new funding opportunities. The Strengthening Vaccine Confidence and Uptake among Adolescents and their Families through Community Partnerships project and The Improving Vaccine Access, Education, and Outreach Through Faith-Based Partnerships project are both now accepting applications.
The Building Local Operational Capacity for COVID-19, Healthcare-Associated Infections, and Antimicrobial Resistance (BLOC COVID-19+) project continues and expands upon the first year of the BLOC COVID-19 Demonstration Site project by allowing LHDs to go beyond COVID-19 response and address other HAIs and AR pathogens.

At the recently concluded NACCHO Preparedness Summit in Atlanta, GA, a workshop on risk communication in public health emergencies highlighted how disasters like COVID-19, Mpox, and the Ohio train derailment have affected the public’s ability to trust messaging from the government.
National Infant Immunization Week (NIIW) is observed yearly the last week of April. This week serves as a great reminder of the importance of continuing to educate and encourage routine vaccinations, especially for vulnerable infants.
Franklin County Public Health, Kent County Health Department, and Minneapolis Health Department received funding and technical assistance from national organizations to advance their efforts to reduce lead exposure and its effects through a HiAP approach.
The National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) conducted a brief survey to gather information from LHDs on experiences, impact, and response efforts related to the Mpox outbreak.
In November, the HIV, STI, Viral Hepatitis, and Harm Reduction Workgroup (HSHW) met in person, with representatives from CDC to share LHD experiences in the HIV, STI, and Harm Reduction spaces, hear of CDC priorities, and strategize together on advancing program successes and addressing program challenges.
Social media was both an incubator for misinformation that local health officials have had to combat as well as a strategic tool that health departments used to inform the behavioral health of the public during the pandemic.
