Trenton Health Team

What Trenton Health Team does

Trenton Health Team (THT) is a Trenton, New Jersey-based nonprofit community health improvement collaborative founded in 2006 in response to the closure of Mercer Medical Center. It was formed through collaboration among competing healthcare partners and city government and, in 2020, was designated as one of New Jersey's first Regional Health Hubs under legislation signed by Governor Phil Murphy. THT serves Medicaid beneficiaries, uninsured residents, families with complex health and social needs, substance-using residents, and North Trenton neighborhood stakeholders in the Greater Trenton and Mercer County area.

THT's service portfolio is organized around three lines: Community Care (one-to-one support delivered by Community Health Workers, patient navigators, educators, and registered nurses with lived experience in the Trenton community for cancer screenings, diabetes management, Medicaid enrollment, maternal/infant health, and harm reduction), Community Partnerships (convenor, program manager, fiscal sponsor, and lead grant applicant for partner organizations), and Data & Research (needs assessments, evaluation, and impact measurement for healthcare providers, foundations, payers, and government). Its technology footprint centers on the Trenton Health Information Exchange (HIE) — a regional clinical-data-sharing database — alongside web/digital tools including the Free Food Finder, the NJ Statewide Food Insecurity Index (covering all 21 NJ counties), the Harm Reduction Map and Resource Finder, and the Mercer County By The Numbers demographic portal.

THT is funded primarily through grants from national and local foundations (including Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Merck Company Foundation, Bristol Myers Squibb Foundation, J&J Foundation, Horizon BCBS of NJ, Bank of America Charitable Foundation, and CDC Foundation), New Jersey state agencies (Department of Labor & Workforce Development, Department of Community Affairs, Office of the Food Security Advocate), fee-for-service program contracts, and individual donations. CEO Gregory Paulson has led the organization since 2015, scaling it from 11 employees on a $1.5M budget to roughly 50 employees on an $8M budget in 2023; in 2025 the organization co-led the application that made Trenton the first New Jersey community to win the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Culture of Health Prize, an award that carried a $250,000 prize.
