Talk:Association of State and Territorial Health Officials

[Untitled]
Full disclosure: I work for this organization. However, I tried to write the page in an unbiased way. I used the National Association of County and City Health Officials page as a guide.

Reasons ASTHO should have a Wikipedia entry:


 * It previously had a page, but it was deleted, I am not sure why. (I had no part in developing the previous page.) Several other Wikipedia pages had linked to the ASTHO page, and those links no longer work. See examples: BioSense, Public Health Information Network, and Professional degrees of public health.
 * ASTHO is an important partner with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the public health space, acting as a focal point of interaction between state public health agencies and federal agencies. Some of the work ASTHO does with the CDC is described on the CDC's website partner page, which includes descriptions and links to several ASTHO reports. The CDC also has many other ASTHO material on their website, including a presentation on mosquito control programs, a policy toolkit for healthcare-associated infections, and a SARS Preparedness Checklist.
 * ASTHO is cited numerous times in public health journals. Here are four examples from four different journals: American Journal of Public Health, BMC Public Health (in the citations), Journal of Public Health Management and Practice, and Health Affairs.
 * ASTHO is also featured in nonacademic public health media. A few examples: Nation's Health, NewPublicHealth.org, and Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy News.
