The role of MPHA in Public Health

The Montana Health Association was organized in 1918; one of the first four states to affiliate with the American Public Health Association (APHA) in 1919. In 1979 the name of the organization was officially changed to the Montana Public Health Association. The members and the officers of the Executive Board govern the organization. Organizational members educate and lobby legislators with the purpose of advancing and supporting legislation that enhances the health and safety of the population. MPHA joins with other organizations on specific issues to strengthen the Voice of public health and to advance legislative support for the people of Montana.
