The Partnership for Better Health champions and invests in ideas, initiatives, and collaborations to advance equity and improve the health of the people and communities in our region.
Partnership for Better Health’s recent grantmaking shows a clear pattern: it funds core health infrastructure alongside community-based efforts that address the root causes of poor health. The largest recent awards went to Sadler Health Center Corporation in Carlisle, first for program operating funds and then for dental services and community health worker support, signaling sustained support for access to care and social determinants of health. Another major thread is behavioral health and recovery, including support for NHS Stevens Center to make psychiatric care available for an underserved population with no insurance, Medicaid, or Medicare. The foundation also backs organizations working on housing stability, such as Carlisle Cares, which received support for coordinated entry for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness and for renovations at a family shelter in Shippensburg. Across these grants, the foundation emphasizes local, practical interventions that connect residents to health services, housing, transportation, and community supports. Its portfolio also includes nonprofit capacity building, advocacy, and direct assistance tied to specific community needs in Cumberland and Perry counties.
Access to health care is a central theme. Partnership for Better Health gave $190,000 to Employment Skills Center to meet the critical need for frontline healthcare workers in the community, and $100,000 to PA Home Health Care and Hospice for short-term financial assistance supporting home-based care. It also supported Sadler Health Center Corporation for dental services and community health worker support. In mental health and recovery, the foundation awarded $75,000 to Pennsylvania Mental Health Consumers' Association to strengthen the Central Region Community Support Program, and $169,344 to Substance Abuse Services Inc. for treatment, advocacy, and education in the Greater Carlisle area. Food access and policy advocacy appear as well: The Food Trust received $75,000 to address healthy food access and affordability through coalition building and advocacy. For youth, Susquenita School District received $99,604 for healthy youth development, and Summer Program for Youth received $52,500 for a summer enrichment program for at-risk youth in grades 4-6.
