Trinity Health Community Health & Well-Being Fund
As a faith-based health system, Trinity Health’s Mission is more than providing health care – it’s about transforming lives and communities.
Every day, we see firsthand how access to compassionate, high-quality clinical and social care changes the well-being of families, strengthens communities, and restores hope to those who need it most. Last year, Trinity Health invested over $2.2 billion in Community Impact initiatives.
In recognition of Trinity Health’s 25th Anniversary, we are launching a special initiative to improve community health nationwide. There are four priority areas to help meet the needs of over 1.4 million individuals:
Access to Health Care – At Trinity Health, we envision and strive to provide equitable access to whole person care where communities thrive because everyone has a fair and just opportunity to be as healthy as possible. We’re committed to providing care teams that can deliver seamless care across the continuum, including primary care, hospital care, home care, long-term care, rehabilitation, pharmaceuticals, behavioral health and wellness, and care that bridges clinical and social needs.
Housing – Housing is increasingly becoming important to community health. Ensuring safe and stable housing for vulnerable populations directly impacts the clinical work we do and will lead to positive patient outcomes. Through these initiatives, Trinity Health demonstrates its unwavering commitment to fostering healthier communities and improving the quality of life for all individuals we serve.
Food Insecurity – In 2023, 47.4 million people in the United States were food insecure, which is about one in seven people. Trinity Health’s commitment to addressing hunger as a health issue includes screening patients for food insecurity and connecting those in need to resources; providing land for community farms; nutrition education; and loans to community partners that are investing in bringing healthy, affordable foods to neighborhoods in need.
Behavioral Health – 23% of U.S. adults had a mental illness in 2023. Focusing on positive patient outcomes, Trinity Health is committed to addressing mental health challenges in our communities by providing clinical services, peer support, and substance use treatment.
