APHA's Affiliate Relationships
The Alliance of Professional Health Advocates is pleased to be counted among an esteemed group of organizations that support the professionalism of health and patient advocacy at its highest levels
As such, we are sometimes able to offer APHA members benefits if they come to us through some of these organizations.
In some cases, we provide discounted dues on a Premium APHA membership (no discounts are available for PACE memberships through affiliations). For others, there may be different benefits: discounts, CEs, and others*.
As you consider your membership in APHA, take note of these affiliations. Please note: for those organizations offering APHA membership discounts, only one affiliation discount may be used, and only for a new Premium membership.
APHA is proud to affiliate with and support these organizations:
