Community-Based Connections/Collaborative Interdisciplinary Conversations & Action Planning

Though PIPH - Community Collaboration, GGHI’s engages in ongoing interdisciplinary collaborations that include lay and professional community members in the areas of medicine, mental health, the faith community, law enforcement, politics, education, business, and more. We believe that lasting reduction and ultimate elimination of public health problems of health disparities among vulnerable racial/ethnic and other socio-economically disadvantaged groups necessarily requires: a) problem ownership of the WHOLE community, AND b) 'all hands on deck' for developing and implementing satisfactory solutions. – that is, the consumer, their community, and the system(s) that govern them. PIPH believes that collaborative community-based conversation and partnerships can only be meaningful and productive when it involves active input from stakeholders from all of these service levels.
