The Partnership for Better Health is seeking proposals from interested consultants and firms to guide a refresh of our current strategic plan to be implemented starting July 1, 2026. We seek a consultant that can engage us in reflecting on what we have accomplished thus far, how we can build on the momentum, and identify what we still need to do to fulfill our goals:

Goal 1: Create equitable and inclusive organizational policies and practices.

  • Cultivate an organization that encompasses comprehensive policies and practices that uplift, empower and involve justice, health equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging in internal operations and culture.

Goal 2: Build equitable, just, and inclusive community investment processes.        

  • Part A: Build an equitable and inclusive community investment process consisting of grants and initiatives.
  • Part B: Build an equitable and inclusive community investment process consisting of Community Engagement, Partnerships and Policy Advocacy.

Goal 3: Center People with Lived Experience (PWLE) in building community health solutions.

Timeline: The Strategic Planning process is expected to last three to five months, beginning in November 2025 and concluding in March 2026. Some meeting times may be flexible and based upon the consultant’s proposed approach.

Budget: Budgets are expected to range between $5,000 and $10,000.

Bidding Process: Proposals may be submitted via email to Casandra Jewell at: [email protected]. Please feel free to direct possible questions to Carol Thornton (717-960-9009 x7).
