Collaboration. Education. Advocacy.
Mission:
To improve the health of Upper Valley residents through shared public health initiatives and services within a network of community stakeholders.
Vision:
Working together, our Upper Valley community will be healthy, safe, supportive, and vital.
As one of the State of New Hampshire’s 13 regional health networks, which also serves 22 communities in Vermont, the Public Health Council of the Upper Valley has quickly become the largest and broadest coalition of advocates on public and population health issues in the greater Upper Valley region. The PHC is a dynamic organization with the flexibility to forge solutions that respond to the needs of its grassroot members with backing from governmental, philanthropic, and health care institutions. Through monthly meetings and ongoing initiatives, the PHC empowers organizations, professionals, and citizens, who together make our communities healthier and better places. The Public Health Council operates with funding and support from local towns, private donors, foundations, the State of NH DHHS, Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital, and Dartmouth-Hitchcock.
