Story of impact: growing stronger and healthier communities

80% of what makes up someone’s health is determined outside the health clinic or hospital – things like stable housing, access to food and hygiene care and reliable transportation. In 2025, we invested nearly $225,000 across our four states to fund community organizations working to address the social and economic conditions that prevent people from living healthier lives.

Advancing Whole-Person Health in Our Communities

Behavioral health access is a pressing community need and our greatest opportunity for impact. We’re working to advance whole-person health by expanding access to behavioral health in underserved communities. Our efforts focus on three areas—Resilient Children and Families, Healthy and Connected Aging and Health Care Workforce.

Palliative Care Access

Since 2007, we have invested $65 million to advance palliative care access, awareness, and quality to improve the care and quality of life for people with serious illness and their caregivers. This includes the Sojourns Scholar Leadership Program which aims to identify, cultivate and advance the next generation of palliative care leaders. We have expanded to addressing whole-person health for all people, not just those with serious illness, but some of these legacy investments continue to thrive.
