The Pritzker Community Health Initiative is a project of the J.B. and M.K. Pritzker Family Foundation focused on reducing health disparities in Illinois.

Mission

THE FOUNDATION

The J.B. and M.K. Pritzker Family Foundation is deeply committed to shaping innovative and effective strategies for solving society's most challenging problems. For almost twenty years, the Foundation has worked to catalyze effective solutions to societal needs in three focus areas: early childhood, community healthcare, and human and civil rights.

The Pritzker Children's Initiative is dedicated to expanding equitable access to and participation in high-quality services for infants, toddlers, and their families.

The Pritzker Community Health Initiative seeks to reduce disparities for all Illinoisans by ensuring access to health care, improving the quality of that care and reducing its cost.

The focus of the foundation's Civil and Human Rights portfolio is to protect the rights of all people in all communities.

The foundation supports a variety of community initiatives in the State of Illinois with a focus on the improvement of early childhood programs and services for infants and toddlers.
