Center for Community Health & Prevention

At the Center for Community Health and Prevention (CCHP), the community is our patient. Our focus is on disease prevention and improving access to care, especially for at-risk populations, to prevent health problems before they start. Partnering with the URMC, our research- based interventions range from policy and environmental change planning and advocacy, to community and practice-based programs, which help people maintain healthy behaviors over the long-term. Through CCH programs, we explore the best ways to transform our community into a healthier community: one policy, one program, one person at a time.
