Can ACSH demonstrate its success in reaching the public and decision-makers?
ACSH’s views and publications are covered extensively by the print and electronic media. Through a special editorial fellowship program, ACSH authors contribute opinion pieces to publications from coast to coast. What is ACSH’s most important need? The bottom line is budgetary. ACSH needs money to investigate more issues, publish more reports, hire more researchers and broaden its educational efforts. With expanded support, ACSH can have an even greater impact on public health education and policymaking by continuing to present a balanced scientific position to counteract the financially strong but misguided special-interest groups that often dominate today’s health debates.
