Community

We live and work in the community. We are committed to providing access to quality health care services to our Participants. In addition, Keystone First Community HealthChoices connects with the communities we serve. Through participation in community outreach events, health fairs, and neighborhood functions, we make a real difference in our Participants' lives. We lend support to, and work with, Participants and community groups to foster Participant independence by addressing issues that affect health care, including housing, transportation, community transition services, employment skills, and health education.

Together, we can support healthy living for all.

Tools for Tomorrow

Tools for Tomorrow is Keystone First CHC's job readiness series, featuring industry leaders who will give practical advice for landing the ideal job. All Keystone First CHC Participants are invited to attend.
