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:ASPPH Webinar: Transforming Academia For Equity
DESCRIPTION:ASPPH\, in partnership with the Transforming Academia for Equity Coordinating Center\, Change Matrix\, is pleased to announce a new three-part webinar series designed to advance equity-centered change across academic public health. Transforming Academia for Equity: A Learning Journey is a free\, open-access professional development opportunity for students\, staff\, and faculty seeking practical strategies to strengthen equity\, institutional excellence\, and belonging. \nThis interactive series introduces the Leading Through Change Framework (LTCF)\, developed by Change Matrix and used by Transforming Academia for Equity grantee institutions to guide organizational transformation.

Participants will gain a comprehensive and actionable roadmap for advancing equity within their institutions. \nAttendees will hear directly from grantee institutions\, including Drexel University\, UCLA\, the University of Memphis\, the University of Southern California\, and Oregon State University\, and will engage in structured activities to apply concepts in their own settings. Each session is designed to provide practical tools and clear next steps. \nThe series begins May 13 and continues June 10 and July 15\, with sessions held from 1:00 to 2:15 PM ET. While participants are encouraged to attend all sessions\, each session may also be taken independently.

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:OCEBHA's July Lunch & Learn webinar

Yet many clinicians feel uncertain about how to approach conversations about firearm safety\, and most older adults have not developed a plan for the future management of their firearms. \nThis webinar will provide an overview of firearm-related risks among older adults and explore practical\, trauma-informed approaches to promoting safety while preserving dignity and autonomy. \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
