Access to healthy affordable food is a critical issue affecting children and families across our communities. Our Mission and Core values call on us to nourish the health of our communities, not just because we believe everyone should have access to nutritious food, but also because food insecurity can lead to a lifetime of consequences. There is a clear connection between food insecurity and high levels of stress, poor nutrition and chronic diet-related diseases, like obesity and diabetes.

The provision of preventative, holistic healthcare demands that we go beyond the walls of our hospitals and deeper into our communities to engage patients in the context of their everyday lives and address the social, economic and behavioral factors that impact their health. This can be especially true when patients leave our direct care and return home and must manage their own health. Our overall goal is to create supportive environments where patients develop the skills and supportive community relationships needed to manage their health to prevent repeat emergency department or urgent care visits.
