The Johns Hopkins Urban Health Institute (UHI) works across the University to advance health and health equity in Baltimore via a wide range of programs, events, educational, and funding opportunities designed to facilitate collaborations, mobilize resources, and advance dialogue and community representation.

- To define how the UHI lends its name and iconography to co-sponsor events and initiatives of others.
- To offer co-sponsorships as a vehicle for increasing participation and attendance for programs and initiatives.
- To expand impact both internally and externally by co-sponsoring programs and initiatives.
- To unify efforts across Johns Hopkins and Baltimore.
