Our Partners
At FHPP, we accomplish most of our work in partnership with people and organizations around the country. Some of our main contacts are listed below.
We also partner with many community members, clinicians, and individual advisors for each project to try to gather as many voices and perspectives as we can. We find that co-designing takes time and effort and is worth it for the stronger, more impactful programs that result.
