  • Understanding the Social Determinants of Lead Exposure: The Role of Housing Assistance Programs »

This webinar will share the findings of two research studies from the HRSA and CDC funded Public Health Workforce Research Center, addressing national-level issues around public health workforce composition, roles, recruitment, retention, and implementation science.

Presentation #1 from Beth Resnick, DrPH, MPH: Impact of the disaster-associated federal investment.

Dr. Resnick and team used qualitative methods (three focus groups followed by up to 25 key informant interviews) to characterize COVID-19 response and recovery strategies that health departments employed to extend staff capacity or transition toward a permanent workforce.

Presentation #2 from Heather Krasna, PhD, MS, EdM: Comparing education levels and salaries of governmental public health professionals with Standard Occupational Classification averages, job postings, and other benchmarks.

Researchers in this study used quantitative methods to compare and contrast characteristics of occupations (e.g., levels of education, certifications, experience, salaries) present in both public and private sectors, using secondary data from PH WINS, occupational data from the US Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics, Burning Glass Technologies’, and other data sources.

Audience for this event: The main audience is public health practitioners and partner organizations who would benefit from the research findings,
