Improving Health

 United Way is working to address the pressing healthcare issues facing our communities.  Health is a basic need impacting every aspect of a person's life.  Children cannot concentrate in school and succeed if they are unwell, parents cannot focus on raising their family if they're constantly worried about how much a doctor or hospital visit will cost, and seniors without prescription assistance have to make decisions on which medicine they can afford and which ones they can do without. 


United Way supports local health and human service programs such as Healthy Kids and FamilyWize, as well as partnering with local advocates, government and business leaders, and healthcare professionals to work together with policy makers to create sustainable answers to the current healthcare crisis.

Together we can make our community stronger by ensuring children receive the care they need to stay healthy and thrive.
