The Public Health Informatics Institute is a program of the Task Force for Global Health , a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The mission of the Task Force is to help public and private organizations promote health and human development by building coalitions, forging consensus, and leveraging scarce resources.
The Institute brings public health professionals together so that they can learn from each other and share best practices. Through a collaborative approach, we facilitate public health practitioners in understanding their information needs. In this process, we help public health leaders define solutions to their informatics challenges.
Our staff is comprised of professionals in the areas of public health, information systems, and communications. Our projects help public health leaders define the requirements for health information systems that will support their goals for better community health. Our team is well-versed in the current and emerging issues facing public health.
Our offices are located in Decatur, Georgia, just a few minutes' walk from the Decatur MARTA station and minutes from downtown Atlanta, the CDC offices, and Emory University. We are located a block from the Decatur square. Click here for directions.
