What tactics did the California Center for Public Health Advocacy use to execute a strategic public affairs program focused on the link between consumption of sugary drinks and the increase in health-related problems?
What will be an ideal response?
Major media stories were distributed, noting the high consumption rates of sugary drinks, the link to diabetes and obesity, and the high personal and public costs of these diseases. Poll results in California were promoted, showing public support for consumer protections and education on the subject. A press conference at the state capitol was held, pressing lawmakers to introduce legislation calling for soda warning labels. And media stories, op-eds, and editorials with legislators were shared on social media to create a positive environment for legislative action. And a statewide network of health advocates was also activated to echo the campaign messages with letters to the editor, public forums, and calls for legislation to limit the promotion, sale, and consumption of sugary drinks.
