Project Summary: The PCC's 2025 proposal builds on year 1 activities as approved in the 2024 AIH-HW collaborative grants. In 2025, with high-level direction from PCC’s board and findings from our WPC and LM workgroup, PCC will chart an integration workplan for each of our strategic drivers—communication, policy, and collaboration. We'll review PCC’s overall strategic workplan and integrate changes to reflect a more explicit orientation around WPC and LM as PCC's stakeholders become more engaged and supportive.

More specifically, we will review PCC’s Better Health Now (BHN) campaign, the messaging platform of our policy communication effort and engage the BHN policy group and communications partners to advise us. The PCC’s behavioral health integration (BHI) committee will be engaged to inform the integration effort of WPC and LM. Agendas will be developed for discussion and decision-making. We will consult stakeholders and leaders who are currently not PCC members but who have a lot to offer and can strengthen our effectiveness in advancing WPC and LM.

We will bring the WPC/LM workgroup findings to the PCC Innovation Group (PCIG), led by retired family physician Dominique Quincy. This forum of diverse practices and clinical leaders will identify practical issues to consider to scale WPC/LM and inform policy and other enablers needed to embed WPC and LM in practice for the long haul. Our dissemination strategies in 2025 will also include sessions on WPC/LM at our annual conference.
