This book advances the understanding of how people and organizations across health care, public health, and social services sectors can work together in new and sustainable ways to advance health and well-being.

Two years of research and conversations with practitioners are yielding new insights. The goal of Aligning Systems for Health is to share these learnings with as many collaboratives, organizations, agencies, and individuals as possible in the spirit of aligning knowledge across the sectors.

Aligning Systems for Health: Health Care + Public Health + Social Services, supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and managed by the Georgia Health Policy Center, is focused on learning from stakeholders across the nation about effective ways to align these three sectors to better meet people’s goals and needs.
