Welcome to CHI...The Center for Health Improvement is a national, independent nonprofit organization dedicated to improving population health and encouraging healthy behaviors. For nearly 15 years, our team of public health, health services research, and health policy experts has worked to address the causes underlying America's increasingly unhealthy population. Focusing on disease prevention and health promotion, CHI employs a systems approach, using evidence-based analyses to translate knowledge gained through research into policies and practice, supporting community-based programs that target change at multiple levels, and crafting broad awareness-raising strategies. CHI envisions a future in which the health and well-being of all individuals is fully enabled by the organizations and communities where they live and work. Our work aims to effect change across the lifespan:
