Detailed description is We are a 501c grassroots non-profit dedicated to promoting healthcare access, awareness and advocacy for America's underserved since 2004. Our mission at CCN is to promote health awareness and provide access to affordable healthcare to underserved communities. We are a grassroots, non-profit organization committed to making America healthier. Our work comprises of three main categories – Healthcare Access, Awareness and Advocacy.. . ACCESS. . Since 2004, CCN's unique network model has allowed individuals and families who are uninsured to access affordable medical care through a network of over 200 providers who have volunteered to see patients at markedly reduced cost. By enrolling in the CCN Network, patients are able to access a provider in their own neigborhood, along with multiple labs, imaging centers and other allied health agencies that have contracted with CCN to provide reduced cost services. This is an innovative alternative to free-standing health clinics, in that it aims to provide a medical home that is easily accessible both geographically and financially, which can lead to continuity of care. . . Since the passing of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2010, we have also become a national leader in educating and enrolling eligible Americans into the newly available health insurance plans. With a team of multilingual navigators, CCN again used its grass root connections to educate and enroll several thousand individuals into insurance plans in the Chicagoland area. For recognition of its grassroots efforts, CCN was invited as an honoree to the White House ACA Reception in 2014.. . AWARENESS. . Central to our mission is promoting health awareness and education as a means of prevention. To this end, our teams of volunteers conduct weekly health screenings and health awareness programs. Basing our programs in local schools, community centers and faith institutions, we collaborate with and serve diverse populations. Our screening programs are coupled with educational talks on site, radio programs and online blogs, in an effort to reach people through multiple mediums. . . ADVOCACY. . We also work closely with both state and federal agencies to advocate for health related issues. In the past we have partnered with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the Office of the Surgeon General, the White House and several national organizations on topics ranging from public health safety, legislation for healthcare programs, mental health resources and gun control.
