Abstract
The Healthy Here coalition, based in Bernalillo and Santa Fe Counties, brings together over 30 organizations working across four key areas: healthy eating, active living, family healthy weight, and vaccinations. In summer 2025, the coalition conducted a PARTNER Collective Impact Survey to evaluate its network structure, contributions, and effectiveness. The survey, completed by 29 organizations (87.9% response rate), provided insights into how member organizations collaborate, the resources they contribute, and how trust and value are perceived across the network.
Findings show that coalition members most frequently contributed community connections, content expertise, and information sharing, with Presbyterian Community Health and the Bernalillo County Health Equity Council most often recognized as lead organizations. Overall, trust scores averaged 3.30 and value scores averaged 2.82, reflecting moderate confidence in reliability, mission alignment, and resource contributions. Nearly 90% of respondents rated Healthy Here as successful or very successful in reaching its goals, citing strengths in diverse stakeholder engagement, collective decision-making, and a shared mission.
Key challenges included funding instability, organizational capacity limitations, inconsistent participation, and competing priorities, along with a need for more Spanish-language resources and direct community engagement. Respondents identified additional funding, clearer expectations, consistent communication, and strategic planning as priorities for strengthening coalition impact.
The survey results suggest that Healthy Here is a strong, collaborative coalition with opportunities to enhance sustainability, clarify shared goals, and deepen community engagement. These findings provide a foundation for guiding future action to increase collective impact on health equity and chronic disease prevention in New Mexico.
