Aligning Systems for Health: Rapid-Cycle Research Findings from Communities Joined in Action

View Brief

Aligning Systems for Health, supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and led by the Georgia Health Policy Center, awarded 10 rapid-cycle research grants to explore specific aspects of the Framework for Aligning Sectors. This is a summary of findings from Communities Joined in Action, which explored:

  • What internal factors (organizational structures and functions) and external factors (public policies, power dynamics, and approaches to stakeholder engagement) impact cross-sector partnership design, functionality, and sustainability?
  • In what ways are partnership dynamics (why stakeholders came together and how they have evolved) influenced by these factors?
