The Endowment for Health (EH) is a statewide, private, nonprofit foundation dedicated to improving the health of New Hampshire's people, especially the vulnerable and underserved. EH engages in “field building” by providing resources to develop systems-change capacity within its priority areas (“fields”). Howard and Wu (2009) define a field as “a community of actors who engage in a common set of core practices with a common goal for their work” (p. 10). EH’s field building involves creating strong coalitions and networks, enhancing the NH knowledge base, growing leadership and advocacy capacity, developing shared measures and data-based decision making, and supporting other systems change capacities. EH currently supports five fields: children’s behavioral health, early childhood, health equity, healthy aging, and health policy.
