A Message To Our Partners-

Alliance community:

N
During these challenging times, our Alliance team is here, agile and ready to help you meet the needs of the people we serve together. We know that your resources, people, and finances are being spread thin. If your organization needs help sustaining activities that promote the health of Medicaid members and the uninsured, please submit a request. We will do our best to make the right thing to do, the easy thing to do.

Please do your best to heed Dr. Fauci’s recommendations and stay at home. Social distancing is not a personal choice. It’s adherence to state and federal directives designed to keep our community healthy and safe. Even leaders should be home. Indeed – it’s more important for leaders of all organizations – including care providers – to show how seriously we’re taking the guidance from public health experts.

Resilience: Alliance has always been remote capable. We would love to help show you that in-person (on-site) meetings are unnecessary. Yes, you will need to adjust, but we’re here to help. We are hopeful this resource page will help you navigate through the muddy waters of information overload.
Finally – some reflections: our sense of community is stronger than ever, we are showing up for one another, and seeking out those bright spots that keep us hopeful. If you see or hear a bright spot that you’d like to share, please let us know. Together, let’s carry the light forward.
– Jacob Reider, MD, CEO

WHO WE ARE

We are a collaborative, high-performing, regional network of organizations that provide social services (access to food, shelter, transportation, etc.) to the underserved communities spanning Albany, Rensselaer, Schenectady, Fulton, Montgomery, and Saratoga counties. A community convener, Alliance brings together health providers of all kinds – medical, social, and behavioral – to cultivate sustainable, community-wide solutions that better health.

We assist (our community members + partners), we advise (where necessary), we augment (when invited to do so), we assess (to offer feedback about our shared progress), and we take accountability for the health of our community.

MEET OUR TEAM

HOW IT WORKS

The work we do is largely possible thanks to Healthy Together, Alliance’s free referral platform, used to connect thousands of community members in need to our growing network of organizations ready and willing to help. Healthy Together links health providers of all kinds (from regional hospitals to local food pantries and everyone in between), so that basic human needs – not just medical ones – are met timely and with kindness.

 

 

HEALTHY TOGETHER

WHAT WE DO

At the very foundation of our company is a shared belief that we exist only because we continue to foster real change for our community’s most vulnerable. Our hypothesis, which is part of a growing trend, is that by addressing social needs (access to healthy food, stable housing, job training, etc.) before they evolve into medical problems (routine – costly – trips to the emergency department for warmth during cold, winter months for the homeless population, etc.) will improve the overall health of our communities, while reducing medical costs for all.
