CHC: Creating Healthier Communities Launches First-of-Its-Kind Leadership Council to Strengthen Community Health

CHC launches the Leadership Council for Healthier Communities (LCHC), uniting leaders from business, philanthropy, nonprofit, academia and more.

ALEXANDRIA, VA, UNITED STATES, September 30, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Despite spending significantly more on healthcare than other wealthy nations, the United States faces a persistent challenge: widening gaps in health outcomes that weaken communities, strain local economies, and erode workforce resilience. To address this urgent challenge, CHC: Creating Healthier Communities today announced the launch of the Leadership Council for Healthier Communities (LCHC), uniting leaders from business, philanthropy, nonprofit, academia and more to strengthen community health and drive measurable impact.

“We are at a critical moment where improving the health of communities is not just a moral imperative, but an economic necessity,” said Jean Accius, PhD, President & CEO of CHC. “The Leadership Council for Healthier Communities is a first-of-its-kind coalition bringing together a network of cross-sector leaders committed to building a future together where healthier communities drive stronger economies.”

The Council launches with a powerful group of founding members representing global corporations, nonprofits, philanthropy, academia, and more. Together, the Council will elevate community voices, share insights across sectors, and shape actionable strategies to close health gaps nationwide.

The LCHC Founders Summit will be held Tuesday, September 30, 2025, at the Cornell Club in New York City. The program will feature high-profile conversations on the intersection of health and economic vitality and will be livestreamed for public viewing.
