Living
Out the Gospel Through Health Care for the Poor – that’s
Christian Community Health Fellowship’s (CCHF) vision. CCHF
is a membership-based networking organization of over 1500 health
care professionals and students directly involved with and/or
concerned about this cause.
The three fundamental goals of CCHF are to:
1) Help provide quality health care for the poor through recruiting
and empowering Christian health care workers for this important
task;
2) Function as a forum to raise and discuss questions related
to this vision;
3) Create opportunities for health care professionals and students
to meet and share stories for mutual education, support, and fellowship.
CCHF has sought to attain its vision mainly through providing
publications, planning and/or supporting conferences, and offering
opportunities for students to capture the biblical mandate of
serving among the poor. More recently, CCHF has been providing
technical assistance to health centers interested in starting
up, evaluating programs, and replicating Best Practices programs.
