About Us

More than 35 years ago, the Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs was created to recognize the crucial role of communication in public health. We remain leaders in social and behavior change today because we understand that words matter, that community matters and that only by working together can we improve the health of individuals, families and communities around the world.

Our strategic innovations are evidence-based, people-centered and results-oriented.

We work alongside communities to create lasting change that improves lives. Rooted in equity and evidence, we cultivate partnerships and strengthen capacity to amplify essential voices, advance systems, and ignite collective action for healthier, more just societies.

Our Vision

A world where all individuals, families, and communities thrive – supported by systems that are equitable and responsive.

Impact

We create lasting impact through bold, creative solutions grounded in rigorous, evidence-based approaches. We are committed to using data and research to guide our work and to continuously learn and adapt for greater effectiveness and efficiency.

Integrity

We act with honesty, transparency, and ethical responsibility. We hold ourselves accountable — to our partners and one another — ensuring our actions align with our values and commitments.

Respect

We honor the diverse knowledge, traditions, and lived experiences of the communities we work alongside. We approach every relationship and challenge with humility, openness, and a willingness to learn.

Partnership

We believe that meaningful, sustainable change happens when the right partners come together. We cultivate strong, respectful collaborations that amplify collective strengths and drive scalable solutions.

Equity

We center fairness, justice, and inclusion in everything we do. We work to dismantle systemic barriers and ensure that everyone — especially those historically marginalized — has the opportunity to thrive.

Our Commitment to Anti-Racism

Racism and oppression are lived experiences. At CCP, we continually examine our work through a lens of inclusivity, aiming to dismantle bias both implicit and explicit within our organization. By carefully looking inward, we can recommit ourselves to truly embodying the diversity, inclusion, anti-racism and equity we work toward every day around the world.
