요약This dissertation examines navigational hubs as a strategic approach to strengthening local public health departments (LHDs) and enhancing their ability to serve their communities effectively. The Navigational Hub model positions public health agencies as key players in care coordination, bridging critical gaps between medical services and social support systems. By adopting this role, LHDs improve access to essential health resources and establish themselves as trusted conveners-organizations capable of leading broader public health initiatives and driving systemic change.To explore this model, a mixed-methods study focused on LHDs in Texas was conducted. A survey distributed to 170 public health entities yielded 51 responses from LHDs, offering insight into their involvement in care coordination. The results revealed opportunities and challenges: 78% of respondents identified care coordination as a departmental priority, and 84% reported inadequate funding to sustain these efforts. Key informant interviews with leaders from eight health departments representing a range of geographic and demographic contexts were done to further the analysis. These interviews identified catalysts that drive care coordination efforts and the barriers that hurt progress. Departments cited disasters, community needs, strong leadership, organizational culture, innovation, and staff longevity as primary motivators for embracing care coordination initiatives. Despite this promising work, challenges remain, including the lack of sustainable funding, workforce shortages, and fragmented data systems.The findings of this research highlight the transformative potential of the navigational hub model in modernizing public health practice. By integrating care coordination into their core functions, LHDs can expand their reach, strengthen partnerships, and become leaders in addressing the social determinants of health. For this model to be successful, policymakers, healthcare leaders, and community stakeholders must recognize and actively support the evolving role of public health agencies. Investments in funding, workforce development, and data infrastructure will be crucial in ensuring that LHDs can realize their potential as navigational hubs, ultimately leading to healthier and more resilient communities.
