Strong Neighborhoods

Strengthening the physical resources where we live and work

We all rely on the structure of our homes and neighborhoods to meet our most basic needs, so we’re investing in efforts to improve access to affordable healthy housing, transportation and physical activity.

Food Security

Addressing food access and nutrition

Reliable access to nutritious food is essential to health and wellness. To help meet this need, we invest in Feeding America and community-based organizations that buy and distribute fresh food and provide culturally appropriate education and support.

“We want to make sure that every Oklahoma child has sufficient, nutritious meals three times a day, seven days a week."

Chris Bernard

President and CEO, Hunger Free Oklahoma

Local Focus

Investing in hyperlocal solutions

Access to care and resources varies greatly across our states, which include large urban areas and wide expanses of rural communities. We’re driving change with local organizations that have the expertise and perspective needed to meet diverse needs.

"Particularly in rural communities, the echoes of mental health struggles often go unheard."

Dr. Peter Thompson, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso, where an HCSC grant is helping expand access to telepsychiatry

Economic Opportunity

Investing in economic opportunity and stability

It’s hard to focus on health without stable income, access to jobs, and chances to gain new skills and grow. With our major grant program and jobs in communities across our states, we’re advancing economic opportunity and stability.
