Fall Alliance Update


Director’s Note

A warm welcome to our Alliance Membership!


The California Alliance kicks off this newsletter by recognizing Latino Heritage Month. This celebration highlights the vital contributions that Latinx culture and heritage have made here in the United States and beyond, profoundly influencing a vast array of fields, including food, the arts, and sciences. Notably, this summer Mexico elected North America’s first female president, who is also a climate scientist.


With our US election right around the corner, with its potentially historic gender and racial equity implications, the California Alliance remains committed to advancing health equity in California by catalyzing the collective power of communities, academics, students, and local health departments. Our focus is on extending our members' collaborative and aligned work to address ongoing health inequities in many California communities. 


While we are working with funders to continue our mission, I look forward to staying connected through this update and other communication venues.


In the pages to follow, we share policy updates, events, funding opportunities, upcoming election and voting resources, ways to engage on social media, and opportunities to hear from YOU!


Sincerely,  

Michael A. Rodriguez, MD, MPH
Director, California Alliance of Academics and Communities for Public Health Equity
Special Advisor, California Academic Health Department
Professor Emeritus, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA

We want to hear from you!
