Community Coalitions
Kentucky Hospital Association (KHA) began coalition work in 2018 in an effort to build a stronger, healthier communities. The coalitions are designed to bring together hospitals, health care providers, and community-based partners to discuss how to improve transitions of care, chronic disease self-management, social drivers of health, health literacy, mental health and substance use disorder concerns within the community. These communities provide a collaborative model to address community-specific issues with a board range of community partners.
