<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">I hope you're well. My name is Ally and I graduated from Course 7 this past May. I currently work for the CDC in the Public Health Associates Program (PHAP), a two-year paid training program for
recent graduates with an interest in public health. Associates are employed by the CDC and work all around the US at state and local health departments, CDC quarantine stations, non-profits, and universities. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

information about the program can be found at <a href="http://cdc.gov/phap/index.html" title="cdc.gov/phap/index.html">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">I've been working as an associate since October at the Minnesota Department of Health on the COVID-19 response. It's been an incredible experience to be able to learn about public health firsthand
by contributing to the pandemic response. Questions about the program can be directed to phap@cdc.gov or (404) 498-0030. I'd also be happy to talk about my own experience in the program and can be reached at achuske@alum.mit.edu.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
