Community Partners of Healthy Communities Coalition
Fostering Collaborative Partnerships for Community Well-being
At Healthy Communities Coalition, we are deeply committed to forging strong alliances with grassroots, community, and faith-based organizations to address the multifaceted challenges impacting community health. Our collaborative efforts are driven by a shared vision of dismantling the barriers imposed by Social Determinants of Health (SDoH), especially in marginalized communities. Research indicates that factors such as zip code, skin color, education level, and employment status can significantly impact life expectancy, underscoring the urgency of our mission. We firmly believe in the inherent right of every individual to access resources and support necessary for a healthy and fulfilling life, irrespective of their background or circumstances.
