Celebrating 40 Years of EPES!

Thank you for celebrating 40 years in 2022! Read more about the celebrations here.


We believe in the power of people to promote their own healthy communities, given the proper financial, educational and technical support.

Action for Health in the Americas (AHA) is the North American counterpart of Educación Popular En Salud (EPES), based in Chile. EPES has been supporting sustainable community-based public health initiatives among the poor in Chile since 1982. AHA was founded in 2006 to ensure that supporters in the U.S. received regular updates on the work of EPES and could make tax-deductible donations that would immediately support the work of EPES.
