Welcome to the Ohio Public Health Assocation!

Founded in 1925, the Ohio Public Health Association is Ohio's oldest and largest statewide professional organization collectively representing public health disciplines, friends of public health, and those interested in public health issues. As a professional society for those engaged or interested in public health, the Association exists to promote an understanding and appreciation for public health among the general population and build a sense of unity among the public health disciplines. OPHA is an affiliate of the American Public Health Association.

Our Mission

The mission of the Association is to promote and protect personal, community, and environmental health in Ohio by stimulating public action, educating and mobilizing health professionals, promoting research and teaching in areas of public health, and establishing itself as an authoritative resource on health promotion, disease prevention and environmental protection.
