Mission:

To enable successful partnerships and contracts between health care and community care networks to create efficient and sustainable ecosystems needed to provide individuals with holistic, person-centered social care that demonstrates cultural humility.

Vision:

A sustainably resourced, community-centered social care delivery system that is inclusive of all populations and empowered by shared governance and financing, multistakeholder accountability, and federal/state/local policy levers.

Partnership stakeholders collectively co-design and advance initiatives to

  • Promote Community Care Hubs (CCHs) through building awareness about, develop expectations for, and communicating the value of health care and community partnerships with CCHs.
  • Expand contracting initiatives through developing resources and tools to alleviate challenges for health care entities in pursuing contracts with community organizations and social care providers.
  • Expand social care billing opportunities by fostering sustainable health and social care partnerships by expanding opportunities for CBOs and CCHs to code and bill for social care labor and services.
  • Promote Health Equity through convening a one-of-a-kind learning collaborative to enable multi-payer alignment in communities across the country and achieve locally driven health equity improvements.
