Central California Public Health Consortium

What Central California Public Health Consortium does

The Central California Public Health Consortium (CCPHC) is a regional public health collaborative network founded in 1999 and operated as a program within California State University, Fresno's College of Health and Human Services. It serves 13 Central California counties — Calaveras, Fresno, Kern, Kings, Madera, Mariposa, Merced, San Benito, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, Tulare, and Tuolumne — bringing together Public Health Directors, Deputy and Assistant Directors, Health Officers, and Human Services Agency leadership to coordinate regional public health and human services activity. The consortium addresses fragmented county-level public health capacity, regional health disparities, and the absence of a unified health-equity lens across the Central California region.

CCPHC's core deliverable is the Regional Health Equity Analysis (RHEA), an annual report documenting prominent and persistent health challenges in the region. It also functions as a convening forum for member counties, advancing health and racial equity efforts, supporting public health workforce development, and producing resources that inform regional policy. The consortium is facilitated by the Central California Center for Health and Human Services, which provides administrative infrastructure and academic credibility. Distribution is conducted through direct county government partnerships, with top-of-funnel awareness supported via a quarterly newsletter published through the Fresno State College of Health and Human Services.

The organization operates with a small staff of 6 employees and is not a separately incorporated legal entity; it functions as a publicly-funded regional collaborative embedded in a state university. No external ownership, private investment, or commercial revenue model is present in the available data, and no revenue figures are disclosed. There are no documented product-side technology platforms, proprietary software, or AI/ML capabilities — its outputs are coordination services, convening, and analytical reporting.
