Today, the Public Health Foundation (PHF) is pleased to launch the “I’m Your Community Guide!” Contest  for 2012. In an effort to promote the Guide to Community Preventive Services, also known as the Community Guide, PHF is collecting stories from those who have used or are currently using the Community Guide to improve health in their community. The stories will help advance public health practice by exemplifying the value of implementing evidence-based strategies.
 
Stories are encouraged from all state, tribal, local, and territorial health departments; community health coalitions; and other organizations that have used or are currently using the Community Guide’s findings and recommendations to improve health in their communities. The top three entrants will each be awarded recognition for their organization's accomplishments. The top 15 entrants will win an “I’m Your Community Guide!” prize pack, and all entrants will receive 15% off a future purchase of public health training materials from PHF’s Online Store.
 
Submit stories for contest consideration via e-mail to [email protected]  today through April 30, 2012. Submissions may be made as a text document of no more than two pages or as a completed contest entry form. Each entry will be reviewed and scored by a panel of judges, and winners and prizes will be announced by May 31, 2012. Stories will be made public to create a community of learning and sharing surrounding the Community Guide. Complete submission information is detailed in the “I’m Your Community Guide!” Contest Submission Guidelines.
 
PHF is working to promote the Community Guide in a variety of ways.  If you are interested in helping PHF promote use of the Community Guide, evidence based findings, and recommendations to improve the public's health, please contact Antoinette Barber.​
