New Report! Five Years as the Public Health Institute of Western MA
February 17, 2022
The Public Health Institute of Western Massachusetts typically publishes reports on particular health issues and not ourselves. However, we often are asked about our regional reach, funding sources, partnership structures, and the scope of our work. In this report, we aim to answer some of these questions as we reflect on the past five years as the Public Health Institute of Western Massachusetts. We also hope this report serves as a baseline for future annual reports.
