The Healthier Greater New Haven Partnership was founded in December 2010 with the mission to improve the health and wellbeing of the Greater New Haven community.

The Partnership’s vision is through periodic community needs assessments and data collection, to:

1. measure and monitor the health status and quality of life of the Greater New Haven community with the goal of improving the health and well-being of Greater New Haven residents,
2. utilize these findings to develop a collaborative regional health improvement plan and to guide organization-specific strategic planning initiatives and outreach efforts, and
3. to develop a shared vision and plan for the community and help sustain lasting change.

The Healthier Greater New Haven Partnership is a coalition that includes one hospital, five actively participating departments or districts of public health, two federally qualified health centers, and numerous community and non-profit organizations serving the Greater New Haven region of Connecticut.
