Strategic Priority Areas
OUR NORTH STAR
IPHI will serve as the leading voice in Illinois to re-envision public health as a system in which all people and communities have a fair and just opportunity to be healthy and thrive.
Community-based Infrastructure
We work closely with community-based organizations (CBOs), trusted anchors for communities most affected by health inequity.
Cross-sector Leadership
We work across the diverse sectors that influence public health—food, housing, healthcare, education, and the environment. Our cross-sector leadership and justice-oriented approach shape the way Illinois advances community-defined health and well-being.
Community Voice
We center community expertise in all our systems change work, emphasizing data, community insight, and storytelling when defining goals, guiding execution, and communicating impact.
Organizational Resilience
We prioritize continuity and field leadership as the public health sector weathers funding volatility, political and structural shifts, and fragmentation. We continuously adapt in order to best support our partners and respond to emerging needs.
