AIHA has two awareness campaigns that allow you to send a letter to your U.S. Senators and Representative, in less than a minute. The first campaign is “Restore NIOSH: Protect Worker Health and Safety” and the second “Support for Restoring Critical Occupational Health Programs in HHS“. NIOSH plays a vital role in safeguarding public health through research, education, and support for workplace safety initiatives. In addition to friends and colleagues impacted by these cuts, it appears that NIOSH Education Research Centers (ERCs) will likely lose funding as a result of these cuts. 

Many industrial hygienists trained at an ERC and they are critical to a future IH workforce. Please contact your representatives using the links above, write your own letter, and share information about why NIOSH is critical for worker health and safety. There are template materials on the AIHA website, including and even a video.

Thank you! AIHA RMS Board of Directors

Congratulations to Steve Monson for being elected the Chapter’s Vice President at our Special Election held at our December Member Meeting. We really appreciate Steve’s willingness to step into this position and subsequently take the reins as our Chapter President for the 2025/26 fiscal year!

Congrats to John Hintzman for winning a $1,000 gift card. A big thank you for everyone that participated to help us raise money for The Friday Food Bag Foundation and Larimer County Food Bank.

On September 18, 2024, our Chapter President, Dona Leonard, presented a $630 check to the Food Bank for Larimer County on behalf of the ASSP Rocky Mountain Chapter.  This donation, raised during our 2023-2024 Chapter Year, was made possible thanks to the generosity of our members. Your contributions are making a real difference for families in our community!
