Creating and Scaling Sustainable Solutions for Communities
Our Mission
The Whole Community Health Initiative was created as a collaboration between the Kenan-Flagler Business School and UNC Public Policy to focus on the social and economic factors, the physical environment and the policies that determine quality and longevity of live.
The Whole Community Health Initiative fosters connections to partner institutions to build collective and sustainable solutions.
Our Approach
The whole community health model focuses on six interconnected pillars of opportunity:
Economic Stability
Education
The availability of healthy food and the absence of hunger among at-risk vulnerable populations.
Access to high-quality health care and well-trained providers suited to the needs of the community.
Social integration and community engagement.
The physical environment.
