Health Equity

Public Health

Public health is a key component of social equity, and is at the foundation of much of our work. We develop data platforms that go beyond information analysis and dissemination, providing tools that are designed to maximize behavioral change.

We believe good science and good data should drive good outcomes. Green River designs and develops data systems that inform — and lead to better interventions and results. 

Public reporting

We engineer data consumption and analysis pipelines that securely ingest and process health related data sources at scale.

We thoughtfully implement data visualizations, maps, reports, and narrative (data-driven story telling) to deliver audience-relavent information to create and enforce positive behavior.  

Making data actionable

Maximizing impact efficacy often means reporting at the smallest resolution possible: providing data that is applicable to a particular neighborhood, or a specific regional sub-population. 

National and statewide reporting can describe broad trends; highly local data can help local health and advocacy organizations design and implement mitigation strategies. Our goal is to provide tools that are as detailed and specific as the source data and privacy compliance allow.

Privacy

Maintaining personal privacy and data security is absolutely critical in publicly available platforms. We engineer proven, dynamic data reporting restrictions to ensure HIPAA compliance at all times.
