What it reported doing in 2020

To achieve our vision of health for a better world, our providence family of organizations focused on four community initiatives in 2020:1 - foundations of health;2 - removing barriers to care;3 - community resilience; and4 - innovating for the future.we chose these focus areas because they are all foundational to health and well-being, representing identified needs that are integral to improving quality of life.
