2025 Community Impact Report

The Alliance has released its 2025 Community Impact Report, highlighting investments that improved health equity in 2024. The report highlights the progress we have made in addressing social drivers of health and expanding access to care for our members, which wouldn’t be possible without the extensive collaboration from our provider network.

Key highlights include:

• $93 million in community investments supporting housing, workforce development and education.
• $30 million for housing, creating 824 permanent supportive units and 210 temporary beds.
• Expanding the Community Health Worker (CHW) and doula networks with 38 CHWs and 12 doulas added in 2024.
• $15 million for case management and community support addressing homelessness and social health needs.
• $16 million for healthcare facilities, improving access for over 72,000 Medi-Cal members.

Thank you for the work you do every day to improve health outcomes. Your efforts make a lasting impact on Medi-Cal members and the broader community.
