Our Mission

The Partnership for Better Health champions and invests in ideas, initiatives and collaborations that improve the health of the people and communities in our region.

Guiding Principles

Equity

We seek to eliminate health disparities and amplify the voices of those that are not always heard to ensure that all people have the chance to enjoy healthy lives.

Advocacy

We advocate for the common good and work to effect change in the institutions, policies, and practices that influence health decisions and outcomes in our communities.

Collaboration

We cultivate genuine partnerships among networks of organizations, service providers, supporters, and the people in our communities to leverage diverse perspectives, resources, and opportunities.

Stewardship

We are strategic and transparent with the use of our resources, holding ourselves and our partners accountable for achieving the greatest possible health impacts.

Boldness

We take risks in the pursuit of new ideas and view these efforts as opportunities for learning and improvement.

Innovation

We continually seek, through research, data and community engagement, unbiased and novel solutions that are more effective, efficient, just and sustainable than current practices, and that will translate into a healthier community for everyone.

Vision

The Partnership for Better Health will serve as a catalyst, advocate and collaborator to establish health as a shared priority and to ensure that everyone has what they need for good health, making our communities among the healthiest in the nation.
