SUMMARY:ASPPH IDEA Institute: Engaging Diverse Voices for Action
DESCRIPTION:ASPPH’s IDEA Institute invites academic public health leaders\, faculty\, staff\, students\, and community partners to join Engaging Diverse Voices for Action on June 10 at 1:00 PM ET. The webinar is the second installment in the three-part Transforming Academia for Equity (TAE) series\, presented in partnership with Change Matrix\, LLC and supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Building on the Leading Transformation for Change Framework\, the session will explore how inclusive engagement can help institutions advance meaningful and lasting organizational change. \nThe TAE initiative was created to foster meaningful dialogue between academic institutions and community organizations around dismantling systems of oppression in higher education and creating more equitable and inclusive public health learning environments. Following the first webinar\, Creating Conditions for Change\, this next session moves from preparation to participation by examining the principles and practices that support authentic stakeholder engagement. \nA central feature of the webinar will be a presentation from the University of Memphis School of Public Health\, where participants will learn how the institution has engaged students throughout its TAE journey. The discussion will provide a practical example of how institutions can center the voices of those most impacted by systemic inequities and incorporate those perspectives into decision-making and change efforts. \nThe webinar will also include a structured small-group dialogue activity designed to encourage reflection\, surface diverse perspectives\, and generate actionable ideas. Participants will have the opportunity to examine the structures and conditions within their own organizations that either support or hinder inclusive engagement and collaborative leadership. \nDesigned to be both interactive and reflective\, this session offers valuable insights for those committed to advancing equity through sustained institutional transformation. A recording will be made available through the IDEA Institute’s eLearn platform following the event. \nREGISTER FOR EVENT

SUMMARY:Who Decides How Professionals in Law\, Public Health\, and Higher Education Are Trained and Why it Matters
DESCRIPTION:On Monday\, July 13\, the Alliance for Higher Education will host Who Decides How Professionals in Law\, Public Health\, and Higher Education Are Trained and Why it Matters\, a timely webinar examining how evolving accreditation policies are shaping professional education. ASPPH Chief Academic Officer Linda Alexander will join national leaders from law and higher education to discuss the implications of these changes for workforce preparation\, academic excellence\, and the communities professionals serve. As accreditation standards continue to evolve\, the discussion will explore what these changes mean for the future of professional education across multiple disciplines. \nRecent actions by several professional accrediting organizations have renewed national conversations about who determines the knowledge\, competencies\, and values that shape professional education. As political and legislative pressures increasingly influence accreditation standards\, institutions are navigating a rapidly changing landscape while continuing to prepare graduates to meet the needs of the communities they serve. \nRepresenting ASPPH\, Chief Academic Officer Linda Alexander will join Erwin Chemerinsky\, Dean of the UC Berkeley School of Law; Timothy R. Cain\, Professor at the University of Georgia; and Liliana M. Garces\, Executive Director of the Alliance for Higher Education\, for this timely discussion. Together\, they will explore how accreditation policies influence workforce preparation\, institutional autonomy\, and the ability of professional schools to educate graduates who are prepared to serve an increasingly complex and diverse society. \nASPPH encourages members to attend this important conversation and engage in the ongoing dialogue about the future of professional education and the public good. \nREGISTER FOR EVENT

SUMMARY:Defend Public Health: Work\, Wellness\, and What's Next?
DESCRIPTION:Miranda Yaver breaks down CMS’s new Medicaid community engagement rule\, work requirements for people with disabilities\, medical frailty exclusions\, and what it all really means. \nPlease join us for our July General Assembly\, focused on the harms coming from proposed rules related to Medicaid work requirements. \nThe Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services proposed its rule to carry out the Medicaid work requirements of HR1\, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act\,” but in doing so\, it set out a policy even more restrictive than what Congress required. Congress’s imposition of Medicaid work requirements is already a solution in search of a problem given that most Medicaid enrollees are working or would fall into an exemption category. But one of the challenges is determining who exactly falls within these exempt categories\, and who will remain subject to the documentation burdens or risk losing coverage. By defining “medical frailty” as constituting health conditions that prevent one from doing any sort of work\, as opposed to a serious or complex medical condition (as Congress had required)\, the Administration’s proposed rule is putting people with a wide range of illness at risk of losing their health coverage — and\, in turn\, necessary medical care — when their ability to work varies over time. This will lead to greater barriers to treating both chronic and infectious diseases\, and place greater strain on health systems. \nREGISTER FOR EVENT

SUMMARY:Pink Lemonade Project Trainings - OHSU General Cancer 101
DESCRIPTION:Community Health Workers (CHWs) and their similar counterparts such as Peer Navigators (PN)\,  Traditional Health Workers (THWs) etc.\, play a critical role in breaking barriers for patients who experience challenges to accessing healthcare and providing culturally-competent health education. While many CHWs in Oregon are already trained in assisting communities with managing chronic illnesses or heart disease\, there is a gap in available content for cancer-specific topics. \nThis training — developed by a partnership between OHSU Knight Cancer Institute and Pink Lemonade Project — will introduce an overview of cancer and then use breast cancer as an example of one specific cancer. Topics that will be covered include carcinogenesis\, risks\, prevention\, screening guidelines\, and post-diagnosis supports. The goal for having CHWs trained in cancer topics is to increase awareness of cancer prevention and screenings among communities that face cancer disparities such as those in rural areas\, Black\, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) communities. The training will also provide some insight and resources into how CHWs can support cancer patients and survivors. \nREGISTER FOR EVENT

SUMMARY:Virtual Roundtable: Building Critical AI Literacy in Teaching Public Health Education
DESCRIPTION:Using AI effectively requires more than knowing how to prompt it—it requires knowing when to trust\, question\, or reject its output. This roundtable will explore how faculty are building critical AI literacy by asking students to test AI within public health contexts\, compare AI-generated work with their own analysis\, identify errors and limitations\, and assess where AI adds value. Participants will discuss how these approaches can strengthen disciplinary knowledge\, information literacy\, and students’ ability to use AI with informed judgment. \nCore takeaway:\nAI literacy means more than knowing how to use AI; students need the disciplinary knowledge and critical judgment to evaluate when its outputs are useful\, incomplete\, or wrong. \nREGSITER FOR EVENT

SUMMARY:Virtual Roundtable: Creating AI-Powered Learning Experiences
DESCRIPTION:How can AI create learning experiences that would be difficult to replicate in a traditional classroom? This roundtable will showcase faculty using AI-powered simulations and practice environments to give students opportunities to apply knowledge\, make decisions\, receive feedback\, and learn through repeated practice. Participants will explore the instructional possibilities\, as well as the design considerations\, of creating interactive AI learning experiences. \nCore takeaway:\nAI can create interactive\, repeatable learning environments where students practice applying knowledge and making decisions\, not simply generating content. Faculty will learn how custom AI is being used as a tool and how to set up custom AI. \nREGISTER FOR EVENT

SUMMARY:Virtual Roundtable: Redesigning Assignments and Assessments with AI
DESCRIPTION:How can assignments and assessments evolve when generative AI becomes part of the learning environment? This roundtable will feature practical examples of faculty intentionally incorporating AI into student work\, from using Socratic questioning to connect experiences with competencies to using AI-generated perspectives to challenge assumptions and strengthen arguments. Participants will discuss approaches that preserve authentic learning while building critical thinking\, reflection\, and student accountability. \nCore takeaway:\nEffective assignment redesign gives AI a purposeful role in the learning process without replacing the thinking students need to do themselves. Faculty will learn how to leverage standard AI\, and while it is easier to implement\, there are various downsides to consider rather than using custom AI. \nREGISTER FOR EVENT
