South Side Healthy Community Organization
Non-profit Organizations
Increasing healthcare access and resources, designed to improve the healthcare system on the South Side of Chicago.
About us
Faith leaders, community organizations, elected leaders, and residents have been engaging with hospitals and federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) throughout the South Side to collaborate on a new South Side health transformation plan. The goal is a community-driven process, rooted in health equity, that connects existing healthcare organizations and maximizes existing assets, increases access to quality care, and addresses social determinants of health.

📢 Did you know? Residents of the South Side of Chicago face a life expectancy up to 30 years shorter than those in wealthier neighborhoods on the North Side. This disparity is driven by higher rates of chronic diseases, violence, and limited access to quality healthcare. At SSHCO, we are dedicated to addressing these health disparities and working towards a healthier, more equitable future for all Chicagoans. Together, we can make a difference! 💪🏽❤️ To learn more, visit https://lnkd.in/d_z6wiNX #HealthEquity #SouthSideChicago #SSHCO #CommunityHealth #EndHealthDisparities #HealthierSouthSide
