Northeast Public Health Collaborative

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Northeast Public Health Collaborative member states.

The Northeast Public Health Collaborative is a coalition created by the governors of several northeast states (including New York,[1][2] Delaware,[3] Maine,[4] Maryland,[5] New Jersey,[6] Connecticut,[7] Massachusetts,[8] Rhode Island,[9] Pennsylvania,[10] and Vermont[11]) to coordinate public health guidelines separate from the CDC, similar to the West Coast Health Alliance.[12] Maryland joined the coalition in September 2025.[5]

The voluntary collaboration aims "to share expertise, improve coordination, enhance capacity, strengthen regional readiness, and promote and protect evidence-based public health" and "ensure trust in public health, respond to public health threats, advance community health and strengthen confidence in ... science-based medicine".[13]

The NEPHC released COVID-19 vaccine recommendations for the 2025-2026 academic year on September 15, 2025.[14]
