Helping people find, understand, and use the health systems built to serve them — starting with the communities those systems reach last.

For many families, the biggest barrier isn't the absence of services — it's finding them, understanding them, and using them. Connect turns confusing systems into usable ones.
Plain-language health education and hands-on digital skills: patient portals, telehealth, trustworthy health information, and everyday health technology.
Helping individuals and families understand eligibility, find services, coordinate across health and social supports, and follow through on referrals.
Workshops, health fairs, faith- and community-based sessions, and multilingual materials designed with the communities they serve.
Preparing people to ask questions, understand their conditions and medications, and take a confident seat in their own care.
Too many people fall through the gaps between programs — not because help doesn't exist, but because reaching it demands time, digital skills, language, and system knowledge that are unevenly shared. Every unnavigated referral and unread portal message is care that was funded but never delivered.
Connect exists to close that last mile. When people can find, understand, and use the services already built for them, existing investments in health finally reach the people they were meant for — and families gain skills that keep paying off long after a single visit.
Targets Connect is working to deliver, year over year.
Connect is delivered through community organizations, libraries, faith communities, schools, clinics, and public agencies. If your organization serves a community facing barriers to care, let's build something together.
