About PIH-US 
Partners In Health United States (PIH-US) is the U.S. arm of Partners In Health (PIH), a nonprofit, social justice organization. We envision a future in which health is a human right, not a privilege in the United States. We seek the transformation of health and social systems so that structures of oppression no longer determine the quality or length of a person’s life.  
PIH-US accompanies visionary public health and community partners working to build strong, integrated, community-led health systems across the U.S. PIH-US currently supports local health departments, health providers, elected officials, and community leaders to define clear health and racial equity agendas, and provides technical advising and operational support to deliver on those commitments. Our current focus communities include Montgomery, Alabama; Chicago, Illinois; Immokalee, Florida; Massachusetts; Newark, New Jersey; North Carolina; and Pima County, Arizona. We capture learnings from across this network to mobilize resources, advance policy change, and lay the groundwork for stronger community health systems nationally. 
 
Position Overview 
The Project Lead will lead PIH-US’ work supporting and strengthening the community-based workforce in Massachusetts through programs, policy, and coalition building. The Project Lead will continue to manage a collaborative initiative, Advancing Community-Driven Mental Health, focused on supporting community-based social service organizations (CBOs) in Massachusetts to incorporate a mental health intervention known as Problem Management Plus (PM+). Leveraging lessons learned from PIH, the program has equipped front-line CBO staff with the knowledge and skills to address common mental health conditions for clients in their community and support them in reducing problems of mental health care accessibility. The Project Lead will ensure that the program continues to be implemented successfully by overseeing technical assistance and accompaniment to the CBOs, establishing and navigating internal and external relationships with participating partners, creating and implementing systems and processes for efficient project management, and sharing learnings and best practices.

The Project Lead will also continue to establish PIH-US’ presence in the Greater Boston area and more broadly throughout the state by identifying and implementing additional areas of support to existing and new partners, cultivating relationships with local community organizations and local government departments, sharing learnings with the broader PIH-US, Massachusetts, and cross-site teams, and contributing to PIH-US Massachusetts’ strategic planning process.
