Mission & Focus Areas
The organization’s filing states a mission “to promote a healthier community by improving access to clinical, financial and administrative information to facilitate delivery of healthcare services in a timely and cost-effective manner; to provide support services for disaster medical planning.” Its filing describes grants and contracts through the ASPR/ODH for hospitals’ domestic preparedness programs, as well as support for a community-wide medical information network and the Disaster Medical Assistance Team.

GDAHA’s website describes a broader health initiatives portfolio, including a Community Health Needs Assessment, Decide to Be Heard, Healthy Beginnings at Home, Help Me Grow Brighter Futures, the Dayton Regional Pathways HUB, and the Peace Campaign Violence Reduction Initiative.
