HANC’s Role in Collaboration
Across the state, community health center consortia, like the Health Alliance of Northern California (HANC), have for years demonstrated effective leadership in bringing together Community Health Centers (CHCs) and other safety net providers to work together on common issues. Many of these successes have been highlighted in the following report, “Forces for Change: A Landscape of the Statewide and Regional Clinic Consortia in California.” Click here to access the report.
Local communities, regional collaborations, and statewide efforts benefit from organizations like HANC that are focused on policy and planning, and that are able to to organize stakeholders around a common cause. HANC is viewed as a trusted community organizer, community health planner, and catalyst for system change. In fact, Insure the Uninsured Project (ITUP) awarded HANC ITUP’s first ever “Spirit of ITUP” award. The award was in recognition of HANC’s collaborative work to improve the delivery of rural health care in Northern California, and for its role in bringing together diverse interests in health care and related social supports to seek common ground, share best practices, and implement innovative strategies that improve health, particularly for low-income and disadvantaged communities.
