This course focuses on how to use strategic messaging tools simultaneously with framing tools to motivate cross-sector partners and other non-public health experts to support public health interventions, programs, and policies. The strategic messaging tools that are explored include unique value proposition, narrative structure, one-minute messages, and the public health story map.

Reviewers say, "Download and review the full PHRASES guide, especially if you are unfamiliar with this initiative. The summaries within the training are good, but it's helpful to know more about PHRASES before completing the interactive training activities and quizzes."

And, "The training was well designed and developed. The content is relatable and uncomplicated. The stories and metaphors used help learner grasp the content."
