About the Systems Alignment Innovation Hub
The Systems Alignment Innovation Hub (SAIH) was launched in November 2022 to help medical, social service, and public health providers in racially marginalized and historically disenfranchised communities dismantle inequities and improve health and well-being for all.
Through SAIH, TAC works directly with “practice-based organizations”: a broad array of entities that include community-based nonprofits, public agencies, professional associations, and advocacy organizations that are uniquely positioned to develop new ideas for systems alignment, but could benefit from additional resources and supports to plan and implement strong research designs to determine the impact of their ideas on health — and on health equity. In this way, we can position vital organizations to receive targeted research funding while expanding the evidence base for alignment innovations that improve health outcomes and reduce disparities.
With the support of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s Systems for Action Research Program, SAIH provides:
- Technical assistance and consultation to organizations with innovative systems alignment ideas
- The Community Power Network, an ongoing forum on the potential for systems alignment initiatives to improve outcomes for Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities
- Targeted research funding for invited organizations
- Tools, guides, and resources to support these efforts
