Health as a Human Right

At PHMC, we believe in health as a human right — and we act on it every day. We meet people where they are, provide critical services and offer the tools and support needed to build healthier and more empowered lives. From primary care and behavioral health services to housing, education, reentry and workforce development, PHMC delivers comprehensive, coordinated services designed to support individuals and strengthen communities. That’s public health. That’s PHMC.

PHMC is a nonprofit public health institute that creates and sustains healthier communities through strategic partnerships with government, foundations, businesses and community-based organizations. Since 1972, we’ve been a trusted provider, developer, intermediary and innovator in public health. Our work is simple yet powerful: to improve the health of communities through direct care, education, outreach, research, planning and policy leadership.

Convener and Catalyst

PHMC leads as both a convener and catalyst. We offer thought leadership that drives the public health conversation forward and is grounded in the voices and needs of our communities. Our partnerships with those we serve ensure that community engagement is embedded in our work, not added on. And through our emphasis on research and data, we inform our strategies, measure our progress and remain accountable for the impact we seek to make.

Our Team

Our leadership is the cornerstone of our commitment to building healthier communities.
