Community Health Navigation
Finding help with health insurance, financial assistance, food resources and housing can be difficult.
The Community Health Navigation (CHN) program was created to assist our neighbors and community with finding needed resources and services in Tarrant County and surrounding areas.
Open Enrollment is here. If you need assistance to apply for health insurance coverage, contact us today.
We can also assist with other resources and services.
