Contributed to the design and founding of the Public Health for Community Power Coalition.

Prevention Institute contributed to the creation of the Public Health for Community Power Coalition, an organized body of non-governmental public health organizations that cultivates and builds support for social justice campaigns and movements led by community power-building organizations (CPBOs). Born from Human Impact Partners’ national scan of public health and community power-building groups, the coalition seeks to address the gap in public health’s engagement with community power-building efforts. Guided by the priorities of CPBOs, the coalition will engage in advocacy to strengthen the political, social, environmental, and economic drivers of health equity and racial justice. Advocacy strategies include and are not limited to, unified narrative and data strategies, mobilization of individuals and organizations, lobbying, and other collective advocacy tactics. PI is a steering committee member of the coalition.

Funders: Robert Wood Johnson Foundation via Human Impact Partners.

Prevention Institute relies only on unrestricted funds to support our grassroots and direct lobbying efforts.
