Health Resources in Action provides clients with innovative ideas and creative solutions to improve population health, prevent disease and disability, reduce health care costs, and help hospitals, health departments, health centers and more meet reporting guidelines around community health needs. Our approach to assessment, planning, and policy is data-driven, promotes engagement and multi-sector collaboration, and uses a health equity lens.
Policy & Health Systems Improvement
Â鶹ֱ²¥ strengthens public health systems by working at the intersection of public health policy and practice to create broad, long-lasting impact. Policy can be a powerful tool in enacting social change, but its impact is only as good as its implementation. Our approach emphasizes feasible practices, actions, and behaviors that ensure a policy’s success. At Â鶹ֱ²¥, our team members keep abreast of national best practices and trends, but are also practitioners in local communities. Our innovative ideas and commitment to social change energize collaborative efforts with government entities, health care providers, payers, health departments, and community organizations.
