When you’re done reading your print copy of The Nation’s Health, what do you do with it? If you’re like more than a third of our readers, you share it with someone else, either by handing it over directly or leaving it out where others can read it.

That’s great news, as it means thousands more people are able to learn what’s happening in public health and within APHA. For some readers, The Nation’s Health may be their first time hearing about our field or the Association, and it may pique their interest to learn more and get involved.

But if only a third of our readers are passing along their issue, that means about 70% are not. According to our reader surveys, most of you are recycling your issues, which we enthusiastically support. But this month, before you toss the paper into your recycling bin, we’re calling on you to pause and pass your issue along.

Who you decide to share your copy of The Nation’s Health with is entirely up to you. If you work or study in public health, chances are you know someone else who has an interest in the field. Drop this copy in their mailbox with a note, or pass it to them in the break room or in class.

If you’re in academia, share your issue with your colleagues or students, or tack it to a bulletin board. If you’re a clinician or health department worker, leave your copy out for patients or visitors. You can even share your copy with local officials or legislators. And don’t forget your friends and family.

You can help get the word out about what’s happening in U.S. public health by passing along this issue to someone else.

By passing along your copy this month — and every month, if you’re so inclined — you’ll help raise awareness of public health and inform people about important issues that affect the health of their communities. And in the case of public health workers, you’ll be letting them know there’s an organization out there that shares their interests and passion for the field.

Greetings to our new newspaper readers

If you received this issue of the paper from someone and this is your first time reading The Nation’s Health, welcome! We hope you enjoy reading our coverage of public health research, policy and action. And now that you have, we hope you’ll want more.

The best way to read The Nation’s Health is to become an APHA member, as the newspaper is one of the many great benefits of being a part of the Association. In addition to timely public health news that keeps you in the know, you’ll be part of a group working to champion the health of all people and all communities.
