About the Company

National Health Foundation

Nonprofit improves health via housing, education

National Health Foundation reduces health disparities in under-resourced Southern California communities by improving housing, food access, built environment, and education. It implements community programs, policy advocacy, and partnerships to change environments and expand access to resources, aiming to address root causes of illness. Its place-based, four-priority-area approach centers on empowering residents and improving living conditions rather than only delivering health services. The goal is to remove barriers to good health so residents can live longer, healthier lives regardless of income or background.
