Putting Compassion into Action

Building on over two decades of learning from health systems improvement initiatives, CommonHealth ACTION's philosophy guides its practice to invest in people and dedicate available resources to those most affected by inequities in health and well-being.  A registered, non-profit corporation in the District of Columbia, CommonHealth ACTION serves as a catalyst and intermediary for the development of community generated solutions.  Through grants and contracts, we provide services in communities across the nation in the following areas: Program Design, Implementation, and Evaluation; Research and Development; Issue Framing; Organizational Development; Communications and Media relations; and Event and Meeting Management.
