As part of Men’s Health Month 2023, the Men’s Health Caucus of the American Public Health Association (APHA) hosted this Town Hall focused on creating and sustaining publicly supported initiatives for boys’ and men’s health. Together, we learned from field leaders and shared our expertise on responding to boys’ and men’s pressing needs within physical health, mental health, and social determinants of health, particularly health disparities faced by boys and men from marginalized backgrounds.
