Welcome to our Community Resource Guide for Social Determinants of Health. This practical tool aims to connect patients with local resources to address the root causes of health disparities. Social determinants of health encompass the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work and age, influencing individuals’ health outcomes. By facilitating increased access to resources and opportunities, these factors can positively impact health outcomes and ultimately contribute to overall well-being and quality of life.
Our objective is straightforward: to provide a user-friendly guide that enhances the Healthcare Systems capacity to address social determinants. Featuring categorized listings, our booklet organizes resources into key areas. By streamlining access to support networks, we aim to facilitate individuals’ ability to find the assistance they need.

- Counseling and Mental Health Services: Support for mental health concerns and counseling.
- Employment and Education: Opportunities for employment and education advancement.
