JSI

We believe that ending the #HIV epidemic requires sustained, collaborative, and community-driven action. Through the dedicated work of our teams around the world, we’re helping to ensure equitable access to care and support systems that meet people where they are. We’re proud to share JSI's ongoing commitment to achieving health equity and advancing HIV prevention, care, and treatment for all in our latest newsletter. #WorldAIDSDay #endAIDS #AIDS #GlobalHealth #GlobalEducation #IntegratedHealth #HIVTreatment #HIVPrevention #JSI

Nigeria is home to over 2.1 million children who have not received a single dose of vaccine. The JSI-led Zero-Dose Learning Hub (ZDLH), funded by Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, is working to address the immunization gap in countries, including #Nigeria, through the application of high-quality data. The ZDLH’s research, published in Vaccine: X, highlights the need for understanding regional variations that can inform targeted interventions to address the unique needs of different geographies. The article summarizes the barriers and facilitators that led to significant regional disparities throughout the country. Learn more: bit.ly/40h89G3 #VaccinesWork #Immunization #GlobalHealth

Today, I had the privilege of representing JSI Ghana’s Country Representative, Dr. Henry Nagai, at the Annual General Meeting of the #Ghana Coalition of NGOs in Health. JSI has partnered with the Coalition for over a decade, supporting the remarkable efforts of local civil society organizations #CSOs to strengthen Ghana’s health sector. From capacity strengthening in grants management and compliance to enhancing administrative systems, we have worked to support local CSOs to lead in advancing health outcomes. Our commitment remains steadfast as we collaborate with the Coalition and other stakeholders to address emerging challenges, such as environmental and public health issues while driving initiatives that improve the lives of all Ghanaians. Here’s to even stronger partnerships in the years ahead! #HealthSystemsStrengthening #CSOPartnerships #PublicHealth

In commemoration of World AIDS Day, we were honored with the Flame of Activism award at the 2024 Getting to Zero event at Fenway Health. This award recognizes organizations that have demonstrated unwavering commitment and made significant contributions toward ending the HIV epidemic in Massachusetts. JSI has been a partner in the fight against HIV/AIDS since 1988 both regionally and across the U.S., with our first Massachusetts HIV work beginning in 1991. Our work with the Massachusetts Department of Public Health continues today through a variety of initiatives supporting funded agencies to reduce disparities, strengthen health systems, and improve health outcomes for people impacted by HIV/AIDS.

People belong at the center of health programs, and being able to measure their experiences of care alongside the quality is critical to improve health programming. Excited to share a new #resource from our USAID MOMENTUM Knowledge Accelerator team on ways to measure #experienceofcare and #qualityofcare in sexual, reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health (#SRMNCAH).

Creating Healthy Schools and Communities (CHSC) is a public health initiative in #NewYork that implements a comprehensive, equitable, community-based participatory approach to increasing opportunities for physical activity and access to healthy food for people across the age span.

This infographic aims to increase awareness of CHSC among New York State policymakers and highlight its impact across the state.
