This powerful moment in time requires us to look with new eyes towards our future and our past. It is a moment to learn and unlearn. To seek pardon and create equity. It is an individual journey and a collective effort.
The North Shore Health Care foundation is committed to being part of the collective effort of healing and recovery of community losses due to inequity and racism. We will do this by aggressively directing resources to support health equity in Cook County.
The policies that have created the systems for health, education and economic opportunities in our country are most often designed, either consciously or unconsciously, with inequity. Recognizing this deep flaw, the NSHCF will continue to work diligently to assure that all organizations that receive funds will deliver services in a way that is equitable and advances the health and well-being of all individuals in our community.
Years from now, when we look back on this moment in time, the NSHCF hopes to be among those that championed equity for those who live and work in Cook County.
The vision of the Foundation is “A healthy community for all in Cook County”. We invite you to join us in this effort to help us realize our vision.
– The North Shore Health
Care Foundation
