Clear, timely communication is essential for responding to public health emergencies, such as extreme weather, wildfires, and infectious disease outbreaks. The growing frequency of such crises, which is straining an already fragile public health communication system, may further weaken this system. What is more, recent emergencies highlight the urgent need to strengthen the communication infrastructure. This rapid expert consultation outlines approaches to building strategic collaborations as essential infrastructure for effective public health communication. It is targeted to state and local health leaders, emergency response officials, communications staff, community organizations, and other partners. It highlights actionable strategies for improving state and local collaboration, with attention to assessing what kind of collaboration is needed, initiating that collaboration, tending to the quality of the relationship, and coordinating effectively among collaborating partners.
