Regional Programs
Our regional program efforts focus on supporting health departments to define benefit from each other's learning and create economies of scale for health equity.
For twenty years, those efforts have engaged our 11 founding Bay Area health departments. Today, our Bay Area efforts continue as a corner stone of our efforts—and the heart and soul of our health equity inspiration.
In 2024, our support for regional collaboration will expand through the National Equitable Recovery Alliance. If you are seeking support to launch a regional collaborative designed for the specific needs of your region, please let us know.

A membership body, with leadership from all Bay Area health departments, this committee advances health equity. Today, they are focused on supporting the public health workforce, codifying the best of equity in emergency response efforts, and reducing drug overdoses and death. They also partner to support the region's Pacific Islander Taskforce, addressing Black health equity, and support our region's vibrant immigrant communities. BARHII also hosts two regional communities of practice including a data committee of the region's epidemiologists and the region's Equity Officer community of practice.
