Commitment to Your Community

Healthy people, healthy communities

Meeting Community Needs, Improving Lives

At Beth Israel Lahey Health, we believe that when a community gets healthier, people do too. By working collaboratively to address top health concerns, we create a healthy future for everyone in the communities we serve.

Our hospitals have a longstanding commitment to supporting community programs that serve those who face barriers to getting and staying healthy. This includes addressing issues such as access to care, chronic disease management, health disparities and social determinants of health such as food and housing insecurity and more.
