City of Manchester Health Department

Organization Description

Established in 1839, the City of Manchester Health Department (MHD) is an innovative and proactive local health department grounded in the principles and application of the core public health functions. Over fifty full- and part-time staff members work within five branches and teams: Environmental Public Health/Emergency Response, Infectious Disease, Public Health and Safety Team, Neighborhood and Family Health, and Healthy Aging.

The department strives to be the “chief health strategist” of the Manchester community and a high-achieving local governmental health department that balances the provision of traditional public health services with more “upstream” strategies that focus on the social determinants of health across priority neighborhoods and targeted populations.
