3. “Navigating healthcare for the uninsured.”
Letter from Director
Dear Friends,
This past year has been an active one for our organization.
In addition to serving our clients, Cumberland HealthNET
(CHN) was busy in 2013 with efforts to strengthen our
organization which included moving into a new location.
We spent the previous three years at the Cumberland
County Health Department, about a mile away from our
new location. Our old office served us well but we could
not be more excited about our new space.
The board has also been busy making sure our organization is operating as effectively and efficiently as possible by initiating improvement efforts including: a review and update of mission and by-laws, review and update of financial reporting, and development of an organizational plan.
Cumberland HealthNET provided services to many uninsured residents of Cumberland County in As we move ahead, it is our full intention to continue our same commitment to serve, with a goal to reach even more residents than we have in the past. We can not do this without the continued support and collaborative efforts of our staff, providers and community partners. As director of CHN, I would like to personally thank everyone that is involved with the organization and I invite those that are not yet involved to join us in serving our community.
Preparing this annual report has given CHN the opportunity to reflect on the many accomplishments of our organization in I hope that you will review the information we have offered in this annual report.
Georgia Stewart,
Director
