Community Alliances

While health care quality is a national problem, health care is delivered locally and fixing it requires local action.

The Aligning Forces for Quality teams (AF4Q) around the country believe that no single person, group or profession can improve health and health care throughout a community without the support of others.

These communities are positioned to make fundamental and cutting-edge changes to re-build their health care systems. They are bringing together critical stakeholders to work toward common, fundamental objectives that will lead to better care. They’re also making important strides towards reducing disparities in health care based on race, ethnicity, language and gender.
