Health Commons Project

Health Commons Project is a Washington State-based non-profit organization that is dedicated to accelerating equitable access to health and social care. The company operates a Public Health Accelerator Program that assists communities in developing and launching new services. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Washington State Department of Health enlisted Health Commons Project to facilitate equitable access to testing across the state. Utilizing their established model, the organization aided communities in recruiting local labor, raising capital, and accessing cutting-edge science and technology, resulting in over 200,000 COVID-19 tests being conducted across various counties in the state. In 2021, Health Commons Project is furthering its impact by expanding the Public Health Accelerator Program to include more communities and partnering with the Gates Foundation’s “Learn to Return” program to assist in the safe opening of school districts. The company continues to focus on aiding Washington State communities in developing an effective Pandemic Response System for COVID-19 and future outbreaks. Their commitment to success is deeply intertwined with the prosperity of Washington communities. With a foundation in health care and wellness, Health Commons Project demonstrates a steadfast dedication to addressing pressing public health challenges, positioning itself as an influential force in fostering a more equitable and resilient healthcare landscape.
