CFCHFC

CFCHFC, or Coalition for Community Health Family Care, is an international non-governmental organization that coordinates a network of health-focused and family-support organizations. Its mission is to improve community health outcomes and provide care for families through collaboration, shared resources, and evidence-based policies.

CFCHFC was founded in 2008 by public health advocates, social workers, and medical practitioners from multiple regions. The organization emerged from regional alliances that sought to standardize best practices and pool funding for community health centers, preventive services, and family care programs.

The governance structure is led by a Board of Directors elected by member organizations. Regional chapters handle local coordination, while issue-specific task forces address maternal and child health, chronic disease prevention, and primary-care capacity building. The organization emphasizes transparency and inclusive representation from its diverse membership.

Core activities include policy advocacy, knowledge sharing through conferences and online platforms, technical assistance to member centers, and training programs for frontline workers. An ongoing monitoring and evaluation framework tracks outcomes to inform program design and resource allocation.

CFCHFC maintains a database of best practices, publishes annual position papers, and supports pilots in underserved communities. Reported outcomes focus on increased access to preventive services, improved care coordination, and stronger linkages between health services and family support programs within participating networks.

Funding for CFCHFC comes from membership dues, grants from international development agencies, philanthropic foundations, and in-kind contributions from partner institutions. The organization adheres to an accountability framework with regular audits and public reporting to stakeholders. Related topics include community health, family care, and primary-care networks.
