OUR MISSION IS TO IMPROVE
COLLABORATION AND
ORGANIZATIONAL CAPACITY
WITHIN THE PREVENTIVE HEALTH
SYSTEM FOR YOUNG CHILDREN
AND THEIR FAMILIES.
OUR VISION IS TO ENSURE THAT
ALL CHILDREN AND FAMILIES
ARE HEALTHY, THRIVING AND
SET FOR LIFE.
The Preventive Health Collaborative
(PHC) is a network of more than 70 partners
working to create a streamlined preventive
health system to improve services and care for
children ages birth to five and their families
within Maricopa County.
The year 2015 was a year of change,
transformation and renewal for the PHC. We
received support from a new funder, United
Health Foundation, welcomed new Maricopa
County Department of Public Health staff, and
added three new steering committee members.
Amidst all this change, the goal for the PHC
has remained the same: To help create a
healthier tomorrow, today.
The solid foundation built by our PHC
partners and MCDPH staff allowed the
PHC’s new leadership to look farther into new
horizons in this time of change and renewal.
The PHC’s leadership identified three main
goals to serve as the PHC’s north star as the
Collaborative charts a new path. These goals
are to:
1) Adopt the collective impact model of
working together
2) Focus on developing the leadership and
capacity of partners
3) Restructure the Partner Stipend Program
to produce more impact and accountability
Our nation is
calling for us to

partnerships among community members and
creating resource kits to share community
resources with the broader partnership. As the
PHC gained momentum, it became a
movement of over 70 partners working to
support children’s health.
The PHC began through a partnership
between First Things First and the Maricopa
County Department of Public Health with a
common vision of creating an innovative
program to address health prevention efforts
for children birth to five. In order to gain
community trust, a Steering Committee was
created to help govern and lead the PHC
movement. The Steering Committee provides
leadership and governance as the PHC
continues to convene partners, and define
goals, objectives, and action steps.
The PHC has built a partner base of
community organizations that serve children in
one of six health focus areas. In the beginning, the PHC focused on creating partnerships and
sharing resources with partners. This included
hosting community meetings to facilitate

Steering Committee Retreat
The PHC Steering Committee and
MCDPH staff came together in June 2015
for a strategic planning retreat to create a
vision for a more impactful PHC. The
Steering Committee outlined the
following seven goals to expand the reach
and impact of the PHC:
Enhance Partner Value
Improve Health Outcomes for
Children
Establish an Efficient Committee
Structure
Enhance Partner Relationships
Achieve a Diverse and
Sustainable Funding Base
Deepen our Influence in
Communities
Become Recognized as a
National Model
This retreat set the course for three
strategic changes that the PHC explored
through three “Moving Toward Collective
Impact” Meetings. The three changes
were:
Prioritize our health focus areas
Reassess the focus of the
trainings the PHC would provide
our partners
Restructure our PHC Partner
Stipend Program for larger
impact
As the PHC moves into 2016 it will
move from individual capacity building for
community partners to a more collective
movement focused on collaboration and
systems level change.
The PHC focuses on improving the
preventive health system for children in six
key areas:
Nutrition/Physical Activity
Access to Care
Developmental Health/Behavioral
Health
Prenatal/Newborn Care
Oral Health
Injury Prevention
On September 24, 2015 partners were
asked to provide recommendations on where
the PHC should focus its efforts. A
fundamental tenet of the collective impact
model is establishing a shared system of
measurement.
Through facilitated breakout sessions,
partners prioritized more than 60 health
concerns and identified the top five health
concerns per health area. The PHC will now
work on identifying SMART objectives,
indicators and baselines for each health
concern. The culmination of this work will
produce the PHC Prevention Plan 2016-2020.
This plan will allow for mutually reinforcing
activities from our partners and provide a
uniform way to measure our success as we
collectively tackle these difficult challenges.
* For more information on our health focus areas and please refer to our Health Focus Areas addendum on
page 17
Our healthcare system has begun to
shift its focus from the treatment disease to
creating a culture of health. This transitionary
period will provide the opportunity for
emerging talent to re-imaging what health
means to individuals, families and
communities.
On October 22, 2015 partners gathered to
hear two presentations on capacity
development. They also held three breakout
discussions on individual leadership
development, organizational leadership
development and community-based leadership
development.
Dr. Tiffanie Dillard, Principle of Avenir
Consulting Partners, spoke on the importance
of developing a greater sense of meaning and
purpose within our organizations, and about
how incorporating a greater sense of meaning
and purpose into our work increases
productivity and reduces turnover.
Lauren Schroeder, MPH, is the Director of
Capacity Building for the Alliance of Arizona
Nonprofits. She shared with us her research on
vital areas in which Arizona based non-profits
could improve their organizational functioning.
Moving Toward Collective
Impact Meetings
1 2
On November 19, 2015 partners
participated in a workshop to develop a PHC Action Plan for 2016. We were able to
recap the progress we made the previous two
meetings (prioritizing our health focus areas,
identifying our focus for capacity
development). We also developed an action
plan that will enable the PHC to harness the
power of the collective and begin to build
strong partnership for the prevention of
disease in our children, families and the
communities in which they reside.
Now that we have begun to build a PHC
Prevention Plan, committed to developing the
leadership capacity of our partners and have
developed an action plan for 2016, we have
started to ask poignant and ambitious
questions like: “How do we begin to build an integrated
preventive health system?”
* For more information on our PHC Goals for 2016please refer to page 16 in the addendum
The nationally recognized collective impact
model has helped many alliances, coalitions
and collaboratives achieve more effective
and efficient efforts. The concept of
collective impact was first articulated in the
2011 Stanford Social Innovation Review
article titled “Collective Impact.” It was
written by John Kania, Managing Director at
the Foundation Strategy Group (FSG), and
Mark Kramer, co-founder of the FSG and
senior fellow at the Harvard Kennedy
School. They wrote: “Collective Impact
Initiatives are long-term commitments by a
group of important actors from different
sectors to a common agenda for solving a
specific social problem. Their actions are
supported by a shared measurement
system, mutually reinforcing activities, and
ongoing communication, and are staffed by
an independent backbone organization.”
The collective impact model outlines five
conditions that need to be met for a
successful collaborative:
1. Common Agenda
2. Shared Measurement System
3. Mutually Reinforcing Activities
4. Continuous Communication
5. Backbone Support organization

If our partners are provided
with coaches to help them:
Build teams with representation from multiple community sectors
Learn to work better collectively
Address the policies and systems that give rise to preventable public health challenges for children and families
Test different strategies and theories of change on how best to improve health outcomes for children birth to five
Then our partners will be
better able to:
Uderstand the public health system in Maricopa County
Create innovative and collaborative solutions
Build stronger relationships among different sectors in the community
Provide collective leadership
Provide our community with valuable information on both promising practices and practices that were not successful
Measure their impact on the PHC’s health focus areas
Our final goal for 2015 was
to redesign the Partner
Stipend Program and to utilize
its funds for larger systems-
based solutions and for greater
accountability. Many of our partners expressed the desire to engage in community change efforts. Although these efforts have a large impact, they can be very difficult to achieve.
Our Action Learning Team
(ALT) program matches our
partners desire to engage in
these larger projects with
effective facilitation and
coordination necessary to be successful. Teams are made up of multiple PHC partners, who have identified an early childhood preventive health challenge that aligns with the PHC’s mission, can apply to be paired with an ALTeam Coach who will help them design, develop and implement their project.

With the hard work and
commitment exhibited by
our partners, steering
committee, staff and with the
support from United
Healthcare Foundation and
Maricopa County Department
of Health, the PHC is
positioned for a very exciting
2016.
This year, we will launch up
to eight Action Learning
Teams (ALTs) that will tackle
systems change efforts,
publish a thorough preventive
health plan with baselines and
indicators of success, and
provide training aimed at
developing the leaders of
tomorrow.
We hope you continue your
commitment to the PHC. If
you haven’t yet become a
partner, please return the

A fundamental tenet of the Collective Impact Model is establishing a shared system
of measurement. The PHC has identified six health areas to focus on: Access to
Care, Nutrition & Physical Activity, Prenatal & Newborn Health, Developmental &
Mental Health, Oral Health, and Injury Prevention.
Through facilitated breakout sessions our partners prioritized over 60 health
concerns and identified the top five health concerns per health area. The PHC will
now work on identifying SMART objectives, indicators and baselines for each health
concern. The culmination of this work will produce our PHC Prevention Plan 2016-
2020. This plan will allow for mutually reinforcing activities from our partners and
provide a uniform way to measure our success as we collectively tackle these
difficult challenges.

Preventive Health Collaborative
Theory of Change Our Vision The Vision of the PHC Movement is to ensure that all Children and Families are Healthy, Thriving and Set for Life
Our Mission The PHC’s Mission is to improve collaboration and community capacity within the preventive health system for young children and their families.
Our Focus The PHC focuses on improving the preventive health system for children in six key areas:
• Nutrition/ Physical Activity• Access to Care• Developmental Health/ Behavioral Health• Prenatal/ Newborn Care• Oral Health• Injury Prevention
Our Theory of Change
Align: The PHC is committed to being a neutral convener of preventive health partners from the public and private sectors to identify common opportunities and challenges to meet the needs of children birth to five and their families. We help partners create a culture of collaboration, develop shared indicators of success, foster ways to share our data/ best practices and identify common ways to evaluate our programs. This helps all partners make data-driven decisions and employ the most promising practices as we strive to meet today’s greatest preventive health challenges.
Strengthen: A vital part of our mission is to strengthen the capacity of our partners to be able to provide better and more efficient services to children and their families. The PHC will provide a variety of training opportunities that will look to increase the leadership of our individual members and the capacity of our organizational partners. A central question that our partners continually face is: what can we do to better work with the communities we serve to co-create a healthier tomorrow? What skills must we sharpen to be able to bridge this gap?
Leverage: The PHC as a network has the opportunity of leveraging our collective expertise and experience by educating community members and decision makers on the importance of preventive health for expectant parents, young children, and their families. The PHC provides the platform necessary to highlight the great work that our partners are engaged in, bring awareness to the challenges that need more attention, and develop ways in which we can effectively communicate our needs and opportunities to a broader audience.
Accelerate change: Many of our partners have expressed the desire to engage in policy and systems change projects that have population-wide impact. Although these efforts have a large impact, they are very difficult to implement. Our Action Learning Team (ALT) program matches our partners desire to engage in these larger projects with effective facilitation and coordination necessary to be successful. Teams that are made up of multiple organizations, who have a policy and systems change project that aligns with the PHC’s vision, can apply to be paired with an ALT Facilitator that will help them design and implement their project.
Partnership Agreement Our Mission: To improve collaboration and community capacity within the
preventative health systems for young children and their families.
