Our Programs
The North Shore Health Care Foundation serves as an incubator of innovative and preventative-focused efforts which address health care gaps and needs in Cook County. The Foundation has a successful track record of developing and sustaining programs to expand equitable health care and healthy living in our unique rural part of northeastern Minnesota. “Can’t be done” is not in the Foundation’s vernacular. Following are some of the Foundation’s current in-house programs.
