Community Collaboration

We are proud of our mission to help others and are dedicated to giving back to our communities. In the last three years, PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center has given more than $3 million in grants to community partners across Clark County. And there's more to come!

Here are a few recent examples:

  • Affordable Housing: We invested $387,000 – partnering with multiple organizations to support the homeless crisis response system, emergency shelters and access to housing support for individuals in transition.
  • Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders: We contributed $790,000 to partner organizations to help increase access to substance use and mental health services and provide care for minor medical needs without transport to clinics or hospitals.
  • Improved Access to Whole-Person Care: We contributed more than $390,000 to partner organizations that help community members access services to improve their health, ranging from housing/food assistance to navigating health insurance, education services and transportation.
  • Making Nutritious Food More Accessible: We invested more than $487,000 in organizations to support gardening, nutrition education, food production and distribution to Clark County residents who are food insecure.
