Health Village Partners
What does it mean to be a Healthy Village partner?
The Healthy Village at Saint Francis partners share a passion and commitment to improving the outcomes to create a stronger community by addressing many social determinants that can inadvertently affect the quality of health in the Wilmington community.
These social determinants include:
- Behavioral health
- Affordable housing
- Workforce development
- Education
- Food security and nutrition
Many health conditions can be worsened by the stress of these life factors, and our goal with each Healthy Village partner is to not only treat the initial health issue but to create a place where community members can receive the necessary comprehensive care under one roof.
Current Partners
To-date, we have formed partnerships with these organizations:
- Merakey
- Delaware Hospice
- Hope Commission Women’s Reentry
Responsibilities of a Healthy Village partner
Each The Healthy Village at Saint Francis partner should reflect the Trinity Health mission to serve as a compassionate and transforming healing presence within our communities.
Our partners will provide a wide range of services designed to reflect and enhance the community, therefore, creating an ultimate one-stop center focused on the whole person. Through these services, partners will promote synergism, diversity and equity by investing in the future change of economically challenged neighborhoods.
