Tackling our greatest health challenge head on

Our community is facing significant challenges when it comes to mental health, and we recognize that no single organization can tackle the mental health crisis alone. That’s why we’re dedicated to leading a collaborative effort, uniting diverse stakeholders to drive local and state-level action.

About the Collaborative

Fueled by a simple mission: to empower our community

As local leaders in community health advocacy, we lead and convene initiatives to improve access to health care resources—by forging meaningful partnerships between community stakeholders and rallying around novel, sustainable solutions that make a lasting impact on health equity.

  • Social determinants of health

  • Mental health and substance abuse

    Supporting initiatives to tackle substance abuse and support mental health including emotional, psychological, and social well-being.
