Creating one-stop-shops for children and families in their schools and communities
Health and Education Alliance is a non-profit organization with a grand mission to increase healthcare availability and resources to children by partnering schools with local healthcare systems.
Accessibility
We work to co-locate multiple services under one-roof to avoid the hassles of driving to multiple, fragmented appointments
Well-being
The services we bring to school districts through health partners maximize access to high quality healthcare and education
Community Renewal
Schools are the hearts of their neighborhoods, and strong schools lead to economic prosperity for families, children, and businesses
Global Partnerships
We learn from leading global experts to share best practices and engage in tech-innovation that tackles health and education inequities
Our Mission
Health & Education Alliance strives to create partnerships between school districts, health care organizations, and community groups that increase families’ access to life changing services and opportunities. Our holistic community school model has been proven to tackle multiple social determinants of health.
Case Study: Pittsburgh Community Center
HEA partnered with an urban school district to open its first holistic community school with a full service community center during after school hours . Our goal was to increase collaboration between schools and health care organizations to jointly run a school that acts as a one-stop shop for families.
“…We are continuing to explore opportunities…which provide a host of services spanning violence prevention, adult education, tutoring and mentorship, and housing assistance programs…All of this serves to promote structural change and tackle multiple social determinants of health…which benefit from HEA’s holistic community school model to build strong neighborhoods.”
