The Public Health Foundation (PHF) is a national nonprofit organization focused on advancing healthy communities through research, training, and technical assistance. For about five decades it has produced new information and helped health agencies and community health organizations connect with and use data to improve performance and strengthen the public health workforce. PHF is incorporated in Washington, DC as a private 501(c)(3) and operates as an independent, non-membership organization governed by an eleven-member board drawn from state health officers, local health officials, and professionals from academia, the private sector, and other public health settings. Based in the District of Columbia, PHF serves health departments and related community health entities across the United States. In April 2026, PHF announced a partnership with Johns Hopkins University’s Lerner Center for Public Health Advocacy to define public health advocacy and create guidance for incorporating it into curricula.
