We believe our communities deserve healthier living.
We will direct resources and build partnerships to address the root causes of the social determinants impacting the overall health of our 95838 community and surrounding neighborhoods. We will connect resources to address low educational attainment, low skill development, unemployment, and poor quality health care awareness and knowledge. Last and most defining, we will connect services to address adverse childhood experiences and trauma.
