Impact AreaPhysical Health & WellnessNutrition & Adequate Medical Care
Urban Alliance supports programs and ministries in offering opportunities for people to gain the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to maintain a lifestyle of health and wellness. By encouraging strategic partnerships with valuable community programs, we facilitate outreach efforts that increase awareness of, and access to, free and low-cost health services.
Churches and organizations in the UA network are uniquely positioned to have a positive influence on the health of the communities they serve.
How We Make an Impact
Essential Supplies Program
The on-site distribution center, in partnership with World Vision, provides masks, hand sanitizer, and other PPE equipment as well as other supplies to programs working to improve overall health in their communities.
Training & Equipping
Urban Alliance shares best practices with programs and ministries, providing training, community, and downloadable resources
Farmers Market Coupons
As part of our Annual Community Outreach Day, Urban Alliance volunteers distribute over 10,000 resource bags to neighbors in Hartford. One of the things included in those bags is a coupon to a local Farmers Market, providing fresh produce and highlighting healthy food options.
