Neighborhood
Through its commitment to improving the health status of the community, Holy Family Hospital is involved in programs affecting the citizens in our immediate neighborhood. We have a close tie to the elementary school across the street through activities such as an employee-as-tutor reading program, student art displays in the hospital and monthly celebrations for scholastic achievement. We work with the Nevada-Lidgerwood Neighborhood Council to pursue neighborhood projects and partnerships. We also work with the Northeast Community Center in support of accessible neighborhood health care services.
