Whether it’s your grocery bill or rent payment, it’s no secret costs have risen significantly over the past several years. Health care is no exception, and so many people sacrifice their mental and physical well-being to allocate funds elsewhere. Through our Impact Fund, we seek to make high-quality health care accessible and affordable for all who need it – not just those who can afford it.

Why it matters.
“Our Healthcare at Home partnership goes beyond providing basic services and is truly a primary-care solution. Now residents with chronic illnesses like diabetes and high blood pressure, which disproportionately impact the Black community, can receive primary care service right in the parking lot each month.”
LaTonya Mckoy
Manager of Resident Services, Downtown Housing Improvement Corporation (DHIC)
“My grandson Graceson is autistic, and he has seizures. Dr. Patera has been instrumental in his health care plan. He was terrified of doctors, until he was under her care. She has formed a relationship with Graceson that no doctor was able to do. I don’t know where we would be without her or Advance Community Health.”
Patricia
Pediatric Parent
“After experiencing a stroke in 2021, and losing my job and health insurance, I was recommended to Advance Community Health by a friend who is a social worker. It’s been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I’m so grateful for the caring staff here, from the nurses to the organizers of the Power Hour patient education sessions. Thank you for opening your doors to the community.”
Melissa
Primary Care Patient
“I’ve been a patient at Advance for over 6 years, and the free Power Hour patient education sessions have made a huge impact on my life! They help keep me educated on important health topics and take better care of my health.”
Devon
Patient
“Having Advance provide mobile school physicals for the students at our Head Start sites really helped to eliminate the transportation barriers our parents were facing, improved student retention, and allowed us to connect our parents to a valuable resource in the community.”
