Theory of Change

In 2016, the REACH Foundation began implementation of a five-year strategic plan with a revised Theory of Change that built on the foundation's longstanding interest in health care coverage, access and quality. The Theory of Change details our strategic focus, target populations, barriers we seek to address and preliminary indicators of effectiveness.

Long Term Impact

Achieve health equity by reducing barriers to coverage and care.

Target

Increase the number of consumers served by the health care safety net in the foundation’s service area from 185,000 in 2014 to 220,000 by 2020.
