These are examples of the types of written communication materials that are useful in
advocacy efforts.
! One-Pagers: A one-page summary of your issue and objective is the most important
advocacy tool. You will use this in all of your "leave behind" materials you provide to
policymakers and their staff. Two of these "one-pagers" advocate for specific funding
requests by UMSPH to the Congress for Prevention Research Centers, and Centers for
Public Health Preparedness. Note that the UM SPH advocates for the nationwide
network of Centers that provides funding for centers housed here at the School. We
first explain the need for the network, then highlight what's going on here in Michigan
– constituent Members of Congress care about what's happening in their home State.
The third one-pager was written by Students Against Secondhand Smoke and
advocates for passage of the smokefree workplace legislation here in Michigan. We
used this in visits with policymakers last spring.
! Testimony: Testimony to relevant committees is extremely important, because it goes
into the public record on the issue. The first example advocates for a policy change –
enactment of smokefree workplace legislation. Note that Dean Warner explicitly
refutes the opposition's arguments – especially the argument asserted by the Michigan
Restaurant Association that sales will be adversely affected with passage of the bill.
Also, he builds support for his arguments using the examples of other countries'
experiences, as well as citing survey results. The second example of testimony
addresses an appropriation, or funding issue – the impact of cuts in funds for tobacco
prevention and chronic disease prevention programs. Note that he bolsters his
arguments using very compelling statistics to illustrate his points.
! Letters: The first letter is from Dean Warner to Senator Stabenow, urging her to
cosponsor legislation to expand federal preventive medicine residency programs. This
is a very common way of trying to get policymakers to advance your cause. The
second letter is from Senators Stabenow and Levin to the new Director of the National
Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, part of NIH. He had solicited input to his
strategic plan for the agency; I wrote the letter to urge continued support for
community-based participatory research – something that's very important to our
faculty. Then I lobbied the Senators' offices to send the letter – you can see that
Director Schwartz responded.
! Op-Eds: The first example is an op-ed written by Dean Warner advocating for passage
of the smokefree workplace bill. The second includes two opinions – one for, one
against – passage of the controversial "shield" law. I think it includes excellent
examples of how to anticipate and respond to the opposition's points of view.

6. Compiled 7/24/08
! Talking Points: Talking points are very helpful to organize your thoughts and
emphasize main messages. I always type up talking points in preparation for meetings
or even phone calls. This is especially useful when there is more than one person in
the meeting – it's helpful to split up the discussion and allow everyone to talk, without
duplicating topics.
Finally, I have included a "checklist" of how to organize any advocacy communication –
whether a letter, meeting talking points, or a one-pager. Always begin with a thank you!

7. The University of Michigan School of Public Health
Draft, 2/27/05
Urges Congress to Provide $48.6 Million in FY 09 Funds for
Centers for Public Health Preparedness
Background: Centers for Public Health Preparedness (CPHP)
The nationwide network of Centers for Public Health Preparedness (CPHP) includes 27 competitively awarded
centers housed at accredited schools of public health. These centers comprise a workforce development
initiative designed to ensure that frontline public health workers are prepared to respond to bioterrorism and
other health crises caused by SARS, West Nile virus, or pandemic influenza.
The CPHP network is funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) state and local
capacity program. Congress provided approximately $28.6 million in FY 08 funds for the CPHP network; the
President’s budget requests $28.5 million for this program in FY09. The University of Michigan School of
Public Health, as part of the Association of Schools of Public Health, urges Congress to provide $48.6
million for the CPHP network in the FY 09 Labor/HHS appropriations legislation. This increase of $20
million will meet the directives of the Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Act (PAHPA), including new
research addressing gaps in the scientific knowledge base relating to preparedness and public health systems’
effectiveness, as recommended by the Institute of Medicine.
Impact: Michigan Center for Public Health Preparedness
! The Michigan CPHP (MI-CPHP) works in partnership with the Michigan Department of Community Health
and the Michigan Association for Local Public Health (representing Michigan’s local health departments) to
provide high-quality, competency-based training to Michigan’s state and local public health workforce.
Since October 2002, the MI-CPHP has delivered more than 30,000 direct training contact hours,
reaching more than 8,000 public health workers across the State. Specific accomplishments include:
! Surge Capacity Training for CDC Quarantine Stations to respond to public health emergencies. The
MI-CPHP trained the response team for the Detroit Quarantine Station at Detroit Metropolitan Airport, and
provided training in 2007 to U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps Officers. An online version of
the course is being developed for use at quarantine stations across the country.
! Great Lakes Border Health Initiative Annual Tabletop Exercises attended by federal, state, and local
health officials in the U.S. and Canada. The exercises focus on testing communication plans among
leaders in Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Wisconsin, and Ontario. Topics have included pandemic
influenza, viral hemorrhagic fever, and food borne illnesses.
! Region 2 South Symposium, "Public Health…The Next Generation of First Responders Forging the
Alliance in Emergency Response," held in Farmington Hills in March 2007 to inform and improve
collaboration of emergency response protocols between the public health and public safety communities.
! Applied Incident Command for Public Health designed to give public health professionals a highly
interactive opportunity to experience the Incident Command System (ICS). Participants are led through an
illness event from the vantage point of a public health responder, and have the opportunity to discuss the
process of an ICS-based response to a public health emergency.
! Tools for Investigating Outbreaks – a hands-on session which teaches public health professionals to
develop and analyze questionnaires using Epi-Info, a CDC tool for investigating outbreaks.
! Global Public Health Preparedness Symposium brought international experts together to discuss issues
related to preparing for catastrophic health events, addressing multi-drug resistant tuberculosis, and
sustaining the public health workforce in the international community.
! Pandemic Influenza Preparedness Exercise to test the functionality of the University of Michigan
Executive Officers’ Emergency Operations Center.
! Public Health Action Support Team (PHAST), opportunities for public health graduate students to assist
health departments in meeting the demands of public health events, disasters, and investigations.

8. The University of Michigan School of Public Health
Urges Congress to Provide $39.1 Million in FY 09 Funds for CDC
Prevention Research Centers
Background: Prevention Research Centers (PRCs)
o The nationwide network of Prevention Research Centers (PRCs) includes 33 academic research centers
that conduct participatory, community-based prevention research to prevent disease and promote health;
and translate that research directly into public health programs and policies. This collaboration of
academic, public health, and community partnerships links science to practice by engaging communities to
develop and evaluate community-based interventions addressing the leading causes of death and
disability. Each center receives approximately $745,000 in annual funding.
o The PRC network is funded by the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion
at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Congress provided approximately $29.1 million
in FY 08 funds for the PRCs; the President’s FY 09 budget recommends $29 million for the network. The
University of Michigan School of Public Health, as part of the Association of Schools of Public
Health, urges Congress to provide $39.1 million for the PRC network in the FY 09 Labor/HHS
appropriations legislation. This additional $10 million includes funds to create new centers and expand
support for the existing centers.
Impact: Prevention Research Center of Michigan
o The Prevention Research Center of Michigan (PRC/MI) has developed strong and committed partnerships
among community-based organizations, health departments, health advocacy groups, health service
providers, and academic institutions. Research projects have focused on adolescent risk behaviors,
asthma, obesity, physical activity, violence prevention, and infant mortality. Current projects include:
o Youth Empowerment Solutions for Peaceful Communities (YES) connects middle school students
with adults from neighborhood organizations to design, carry out, and evaluate community
improvement projects to create safer and healthier environments. The project is based in Flint, MI.
The youth and adults revitalize parks, create community gardens, and spearhead neighborhood clean-
ups. In its first three years, 180 young people and 85 adult volunteers participated. To measure its
effects, the project is tracking crime and environmental indicators, and student behaviors in the
intervention and comparison communities. Preliminary results indicate that youth from the program
area have more positive perceptions of their neighborhoods than youth from the comparison area.
o The PRC/MI is evaluating the Genesee County REACH 2010 and REACH U.S. Initiatives, which
focus on reducing disparities in African American infant mortality by improving baby care systems,
mobilizing the community, and reducing racism. Notably, the African American infant mortality rate in
Genesee County decreased from 22.1 per 1000 live births in 2004 to 15.2 per 1000 live births in 2005,
representing a 30% reduction from the average African American infant mortality rate in the previous
five years. Preliminary data compiled by the Genesee County Health Department indicate that the
improvement in African American infant mortality rate was sustained in 2006 and 2007.
o The PRC/MI's Speak to Your Health! Community Survey was instrumental in obtaining funding to
support the Genesee Health Plan (GHP), community-sponsored health coverage for the uninsured.
These data were used to determine the number of uninsured and to conduct actuarial analyses to
estimate the cost of providing coverage. This information was essential in obtaining $1.7 million in
start-up funding over a three-year period. The data were also provided to the County Commissioners in
support of a decision to place a millage on the 2006 ballot to fund the health plan. The ballot initiative
was a success, providing $11.5 million over three years to support GHP. 28,000 residents are currently
enrolled in GHP. Results from the PRC/MI Community Survey are also being used to evaluate the
effects of GHP coverage on the health of the Genesee County population.

Students Against Secondhand Smoke
Urge Senate Passage of House Bill 4163 to Make Michigan Smoke-free
Students Against Secondhand Smoke are committed to enacting meaningful legislation to make
Michigan's air smoke-free. We strongly oppose any weakening amendments or alternative bills that
do not mandate the elimination of secondhand smoke. Secondhand smoke has a detrimental impact
on the health and economic interests of Michigan's citizens.
Secondhand Smoke: Impact on Health
! Smoke contains more than 4,000
chemical compounds of which more
than four dozen are known carcinogens
(including Polonium 210, arsenic,
ammonia, and carbon monoxide)
! Secondhand smoke is the second
leading preventable cause of death
! Secondhand smoke is proven to cause
heart disease, lung cancer,
emphysema, and asthma
! 2,400 Michiganders die each year due
to secondhand smoke
! Nonsmokers regularly exposed to
secondhand smoke suffer 30% higher
death rates than unexposed
nonsmokers
! Food service workers are 50% more
likely to develop lung cancer due to
exposure to secondhand smoke
Secondhand Smoke: Impact on Michigan’s Economy
! Numerous studies show that revenues from restaurants and bars do not decrease after
smoking bans are instituted in states and municipalities
! The Environmental Protection Agency estimates the cost savings of eliminating secondhand
smoke in the workplace to be between $35 and $66 billion a year
! Nationally, businesses spend up to $158 billion annually in direct costs associated with
smoking, including higher health, life, and fire insurance premiums; higher worker
absenteeism; lower work productivity; and higher workers' compensation rates
! 80% of Michigan voters would go to restaurants “more often” or “just as often” if they became
smoke-free, according to a statewide poll conducted in March 2005
! $3.80 billion = annual smoking-caused productivity losses in Michigan
! $3.40 billion = annual health care costs in Michigan directly caused by smoking
! $1 billion = annual health care costs to Michigan’s Medicaid program caused by smoking
! $637 = annual state and federal tax burden to each Michigan household from smoking-caused
government expenditures
Students Against Secondhand Smoke includes graduate students from the University of Michigan
School of Public Health and the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy. Members are residents of
Michigan as well as the smoke-free states of Illinois, Ohio, New York and California. We strive to
create a smoke-free Michigan by supporting legislative efforts and raising awareness through media.

13. Michigan Good Food
CHARTER EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Barely into a new millennium, the need for a thriving economy, equity
and sustainability for all of Michigan and its people rings truer than ever.
As part of achieving these goals, we need to grow, sell and eat “good
food” – food that is healthy, green, fair and affordable.

23. Charge business support entities, such as the 18 Michigan Technical
Education Centers, with identifying and supporting the equipment and
process engineering needs of farmers and other agri-food enterprises,
and ensure that food and agriculture are included in state and local

24. Examine all of Michigan’s food- and agriculture-related laws and
regulations (food safety, production, processing, retailing, etc.) for
Research-based
provisions that create unnecessary transactions costs and regulatory
burdens on low risk businesses and ensure that regulations are applied
in a way that acknowledges the diversity of production practices.
25. Develop systems for collecting and sharing production and market data
and other data relevant to regional food supply chain development.
