As part of ASTHO’s capacity building and technical assistance portfolio, the Chief Medical Officer and programmatic teams create evidence-based technical packages. ASTHO’s technical packages bring together interventions that work in concert to more effectively impact public health challenges than they would as isolated approaches. These technical packages align with ASTHO’s strategic priorities, covering some of the most important and trending topics and challenges in public health today.
The recommended strategies in these packages integrate public health and medical practices rooted in peer-reviewed science and evidence, creating a stronger foundation for public health practice. Health agencies can use these accessible recommendations to inform their own community health interventions.
