COMMON GROUND
It’s who we are and what we help build.
Many of the health challenges confronting Rochester and the Finger Lakes region are impossible for any single organization to solve alone.
That’s why Common Ground Health brings together leaders from across our nine-county region to collaborate on strategies for improving health. Hospitals. Insurers. Universities. Businesses. Nonprofits. Government. Faith communities. Residents. All have a seat at our tables.
Our Impact
