Why We Are Involved

South Carolina has significant economic, racial and geographic disparities, making it difficult for all of our citizens to live a healthy life.  Many of South Carolina’s health and research organizations have made it a goal to improve health in the state. The Alliance seeks to help coordinate these efforts and maximize the value of multi-system efforts.

The creation of the Alliance for a Healthier South Carolina brings together senior leaders from academia, businesses, consumers, providers, philanthropy, insurance, government, and policy. These leaders have created a statewide coalition of diverse organizations aiming to help South Carolinians have healthier bodies, minds, and communities, while reducing the future cost of care.
