Communities & Health Professionals Together (CHPT) strives to give every individual a healthy present and future by teaching healthcare professionals, both in training and in practice, how to make a difference through active community partnerships.

The program has grown into a multifaceted and multidisciplinary collaboration; fostering medical outreach, child advocacy, and community service in young physicians.

We aim to improve child health outcomes throughout the Sacramento region by 1) increasing resident physicians` understanding of the social determinants of health and 2) providing tools for engaging in reciprocal partnerships with local organizations via the lens of Asset Based Community Development.
