What partnership can look like
Working sessions on specific friction points. A standing contact for warm handoffs. Co-designed referral protocols. Joint participation in convenings and pattern briefs. Shared tools and plain-language materials. Long-term relationships that survive funding cycles.
Who we partner with
Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs). Community-based organizations. Schools and school-based health centers. Faith institutions. Public health departments. Social service providers. Community health workers and peer navigators. Healthcare-adjacent organizations holding trust we can route through.
What JSPHI brings
Convening capacity across partners who do not naturally share a table. Plain-language translation tools and the Plain-Language Glossary. The Community Health Access Study as a regional listening instrument. Pattern briefs that travel into policy and philanthropic conversations. A team that handles follow-through.
What partners bring
Trust. Specific roles in a place. What your front-line staff are seeing. Willingness to share in a working session what is not yet in your annual report. A relationship that does not require a contract every time.
Example partnership pathways
- An FQHC and JSPHI co-design a referral protocol with three behavioral health partners.
- A faith institution becomes a trusted entry point with named contacts at two hospitals and one FQHC.
- A school district adopts JSPHI plain-language materials for its enrollment and referral process.
- A public health department asks JSPHI to run community listening ahead of its next assessment.
