Collective Impact
Public Health - Dayton & Montgomery County will continue to champion collective impact through the Community Overdose Action Team, EveryOne Reach One Maternal and Infant Vitality Task Force, Food Equity Coalition, and LGBTQ+ Health Alliance, and will advocate for policy, systems and environmental changes to address the social determinants of health.
Removing key drivers of health inequities such as poverty, racism, discrimination, trauma, violence, and toxic stress are paramount to improving the health of Montgomery County’s population.
Our mission is grounded in the traditional roles of public health practice: preventing the spread of disease, promoting healthy behaviors, and protecting against environmental threats in the food, air, and water.
Collective impact is a network of community members, organizations, and institutions who advance equity by learning together, aligning, and integrating their actions to achieve population and systems level change.Collective Impact Forum
