Americares Strategy
Our FocusGood health changes everything. With good health, children can learn, parents can provide and neighbors can work together to build, and rebuild, their communities. For millions of people around the world, however, poverty and disaster put health at risk. We strive to make good health possible—and with it, a chance at a full, productive life.
Our Strategy
A critical way to make good health possible, confirmed through decades of work around the world, is to make smart investments in local health centers—health posts, hospitals and clinics anchored in communities. They are the entry point to the health system, where a majority of health needs can be met. When local health centers do their job well they catalyze health improvements for people and their communities.
Our Goal
Our long-term goal is that everyone affected by poverty or disaster has access to a thriving local health center. To make progress toward that goal over the next 10 years, we will make transformative investments in more than 5,000 local health centers, rally others to support them, and advocate on their behalf.
