History of CLC

Overview

Our Story

June 25, 2019

In January 2017, the board of the Hospital Association of Southern California (HASC) approved a new community health improvement initiative focused on reducing health disparities in the HASC region of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Santa Barbara and Ventura counties. The initiative, Communities Lifting Communities (CLC), is working to advance significant systems change through a collective impact model involving hospitals and health systems, public health departments, community clinics, Medi-Cal Managed Care Plans, and community stakeholders.

In February 2018, HASC member hospitals and HASC’s for-profit subsidiary, AllHealth, committed $1 million to CLC over two years. This initial investment has allowed the CLC to hire an Executive Director and Project Manager and contract with subject matter experts to develop CLC priority areas and community health improvement initiatives.

Generous support from Blue Shield of California Foundation and The California Endowment, along with a sponsorship from Health Net, will fund planning and implementation of several CLC initiatives in 2019-2020. CLC initiatives include community health improvement projects to:

  • Improve birth outcomes
  • Reduce the incidence of diabetes and address food insecurity
  • Support capacity building in hospitals and public health departments to advance systems change and health equity in Southern California

CLC was developed with input from three founding partners: HASC, HC2 Strategies and the Public Health Alliance of Southern California (Alliance).
