Mission Statement
The mission of Community Health Development Foundation is to improve the health outcomes of underserved populations by expanding access to health- and wellness-related services and programming. This mission is rooted in the belief that communities are healthier when they are well-equipped to fulfill their residents’ social and preventative care needs.
About This Cause
The Community Health Development Foundation creates health and wellness opportunities for rural and underserved communities across the western United States. We believe that individuals and communities are the experts on their own health needs, and create programs that honor and support that expertise, developing wellness solutions that put people first. We believe that health impacts every part of a person’s life, and that health is just as much about meeting social and preventative care needs as it is about treating illness. Consequently, CHDF seeks to equip communities with the resources they need to fulfill their residents’ needs and improve health outcomes overall. Each community’s unique culture, demographics, and health landscape guides CHDF’s work, bringing greatest benefit to the most people. We partner with local organizations to provide additional resources, supporting other non-profits and business to meet their community health goals. We are currently operating in Elko, Nevada, with plans to expand to other areas in the Western United States in 2024-2025. Elko Community Health Development Foundation operates out of designated community space in Elko Community Health Center, an ambulatory surgical center built and operated by our partner organization Community Health Development Partners. The community space includes our Resource Connection office and a designated community room for hosting CHDF’s classes and events. The Resource Connection program is a free, confidential service that supports individuals to meet the health and well-being needs of themselves and their families by creating connections to a broad network of health and social services. Our Resource Navigator creates referrals to local, state-wide, and national services, and then helps to follow through on those referrals, ensuring that clients receive the support they need. We assist through every step of the process, from identifying and contacting service providers to filling out paperwork and helping you get your questions answered.
