Heartland Alliance approaches health and healing holistically. We know that factors such as income, education level, physical environments, and social supports are deeply connected to a person’s health. When we focus on vulnerable populations, we know that these factors often negatively influence a person’s health, making health and healing incredibly challenging. When participants don’t have a safe home, stable income, or supportive environment, it can be impossible for their mental and physical health to improve. But our goal is not just to meet basic needs. We want to provide more than a roof over someone’s head, more than a single doctor’s visit. Our core health and housing services are deeply integrated, so that we can wholly address a participant’s needs.
