Advancing Public Policy and Public Health Through Research and Original Science

At Local Government Health Partners (LGHP), we are committed to bridging the gap between public policy and public health by conducting rigorous, impactful research that drives meaningful change. Our interest in research stems from a deep belief that evidence-based policy making is essential for addressing the complex social, economic, and environmental challenges that communities face today.

Our Research Focus

LGHP is dedicated to exploring the intersection of public policy and public health, with a particular emphasis on the social determinants of health. We believe that innovative research can illuminate the connections between governance, health outcomes, and community well-being. Our work is designed to provide actionable insights that local governments can use to create healthier, more equitable communities.

Contributing Original Science

We pride ourselves on contributing original science that challenges conventional thinking and offers new perspectives on public health and policy. Our research is grounded in real-world challenges and is aimed at producing knowledge that not only informs but also transforms practice. By engaging in cutting-edge research, we seek to uncover the underlying factors that influence health disparities and to develop strategies that local governments can implement to improve public health outcomes.
