USF Health has lauched a  new Government Affairs website,  https://hscweb3.hsc.usf.edu/govaffairs/.

The 2014 Florida Legislative Session kicked off March 4 and is scheduled to end May 2.   The new website will provide updates in real time on issues that impact USF Health and its associated professions, as well as ways to actively engage with our Government Affairs team in public policy and the legislative process.  The site includes  noteworthy items from committee meetings, updates on our fiscal and substantive priorities, a brief of activities by the USF Health lobbying team and more.

“Based on your feedback, we aim to continually make improvements to this site to make it relevant and useful to serve your needs and execute a coordinated strategy around how we position USF Health with public officials,” said Donna Petersen, ScD,  interim senior vice president of USF Health and dean of the College of Public Health.  “I  hope this portal will help better engage the USF Health community in state policy and the legislative process so that together, we keep making life better!”

If you have any specific questions, would like to learn more about Government Affairs at USF Health or actively engage in the process, please contact the Government Affairs team –Associate Vice President Pam Pfeifer and Kelli Christensen — through this site.
