Partnered with healthcare to improve community health

Prevention Institute co-led the Intersections Initiative, which brings together coalitions from seven communities served by Providence-St. Joseph Health System hospitals to advance health equity by improving the community conditions that shape health. PI provided technical assistance, training, and strategic support to the Intersections coalitions. We also promoted the initiative’s approach through presentations at the American Hospital Association Leadership Summit, National Network of Public Health Institutes annual gathering, the American Public Health Association’s annual conference, and others. * This work was co-led and supported by the St. Joseph Health Community Partnership Fund and will continue throughout 2020.
