Creating a Healthier Community

Beacon Community Impact works with multiple organizations in a collaborative health network. We use data-driven, evidence-based and transparent practices to chart progress and measure health impact as a result of the Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA).

We are committed to strengthening the relationships within our community and embracing the diversity found there to help make Elkhart County, Marshall County, St Joseph County, and St. Joseph County, MI a healthy place to live!

Our Priority Areas, Strategies & Frameworks

Beacon Community Impact supports programs that promote healthy child development and family well-being from pregnancy through early childhood. Through education, care coordination, developmental support, and family-centered services, these programs help children and caregivers build a strong foundation for lifelong health and success.
The WIC Program provides nutrition education, breastfeeding support, healthy foods, and referrals to health and social services for eligible pregnant individuals, new mothers, infants, and young children. These services help improve maternal and child health outcomes and support healthy growth and development.
Community Health Services Programs connect individuals and families to resources that support their physical, social, and emotional well-being. Through outreach, health education, navigation services, and community partnerships, these programs help address barriers to care and improve access to essential services.
This area focuses on advancing community health through strategic investments, data-driven decision-making, and collaborative partnerships. By managing grant opportunities, promoting health equity, evaluating program outcomes, and conducting research, Beacon Community Impact works to address community needs and improve health outcomes throughout the region.

Creating a Healthier Community

Creating community health is at the core of Beacon Health System’s mission. We believe promoting responsible, preventive health in our community is the right thing to do, and is key to long-term cost effectiveness. Improving the health of our region’s residents is as much social, economic and environmental as it is a medical issue.
