Technical Assistance

PHIL provides technical assistance to help leaders make informed, strategic decisions. We guide you through initial planning to putting the findings from a community needs assessments, health system assessment, or program evaluation into practice.

Technical Assistance

PHIL provides technical assistance on a variety of topics to help inform evidence-based decision making. We leverage the assets the Public Health Institute has amassed over its 50 years at the forefront of public health–nationally ranked researchers, diverse and proven programs, strong infrastructure, and a wide network of partners–to improve health, wellbeing, and equity in a community. Since 2016, we have partnered with funders, community-based organizations, government stakeholders, and directly with communities to co-create solutions that move beyond symptoms to address root-cause issues. We bring the science, you bring local expertise, and together we use a proven system of change theories to get results.
