Social media began as a form of personal communication that moved into the business realm without a clear set of rules for how organizations can best use this powerful tool. In the March session of Hot Topics in Practice, Claire Tollefsen, Digital Media Specialist for the Oregon Health Authority, shares tips and resources for helping public health professionals better address trending topics on social media.

These monthly Web-conferencing events, sponsored by the Northwest Center for Public Health Practice, provide an authoritative hour-long forum for discussing topics that are important to the public health practice community and the tribal health units in the six Northwest states: Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington, and Wyoming.

Event Date/Time: 
Tuesday, March 31, 2020, 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm PDT
