Community Health

Henry Ford Health System is a proud and active partner in our community, working toward greater access to care and improved overall health. We are engaged in thousands of programs and activities – from community and faith-based partnerships, to school-based health programs, cancer prevention and screenings, diabetes and obesity education, workplace health promotions, and more.

No matter how you define it, community is a sense of connection, often accompanied by a sense of caring that unites us with each other. Through all of our programs, we strive to connect, celebrate, and innovate new strategies that can help patients, employees, and the people in our community.

In accordance with our Vision to “transform lives and communities through health and wellness, one person at a time,” Henry Ford Health System performs a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) every three years. Read our 2016 CHNA now.
