In addition to supporting chief health officials, ASTHO fosters the development of other state and territorial agency staff. We do this through in-person and virtual events, skill-building workshops, online discussion boards, peer-to-peer mentoring, technical assistance, and much more. We encourage all state and territorial health agency staff to explore whether our peer networks could be of value to them and connect with agency leadership to confirm participation.

Discover detailed descriptions of our peer networks and the typical titles of agency staff who participate by visiting ASTHO Peer Networks.

Each network is led by an ASTHO subject-matter expert who guides the network’s mission and focus. If you are a state or territorial health agency staff and are interested in participating, please ensure approval from your health official and email our membership team at membership@astho.org.
