“Social factors like access to healthy food and safe, affordable housing have a major impact on health. Even before the pandemic, many people’s basic needs were not being met, and COVID-19 has only made that worse, particularly in communities of color. It is exciting to be part of a robust online platform, where referrals and ongoing coordination enable health systems and safety net resources to stay connected as we work together to take care to the next level for the people and families we serve.”
“For Ballad Health to be successful—and for our region to thrive—we all have to reach beyond our four walls and build partnerships to harness the power of collective impact. When we are all rowing in the same direction, we will demonstrably improve the health of the region.”
