Our Mission:

The mission of The Health Trust is to lead the Silicon Valley community to advance wellness.

Our Vision:

To make Silicon Valley the healthiest region in America

How:

We at The Health Trust believe that if Silicon Valley is a community where innovation is changing the world, then it also can be a community where innovation changes the lives of everyone - especially our most vulnerable residents - for the better.

As we strive to make our vision reality, we reflect the values of Silicon Valley. When we tackle a problem, we take the broad view. We rely on expertise, partnerships and best practices to generate solutions that will have the greatest impact on those we serve. We invest in projects that are sustainable, show measurable results and provide the greatest return on investment for the community.

With a strong emphasis on prevention, we focus our work through three initiatives: Healthy Living, Healthy Aging and Healthy Communities. Through direct services, we are helping one person at a time. And through policy advocacy and grantmaking, we are changing the local environment to promote healthy eating, healthy aging and healthy living.

Our Values:

Respect: Appreciating the contributions of all and treating others the way we want to be treated

Integrity: Serving with honesty, doing what we say we will do and taking responsibility for our actions

Innovation: Committing to ongoing learning about best practices, our community, what is required for environmental change and then forging new paths to create that change

Collaboration: Partnering with the community, leveraging resources and creating synergy; fostering teamwork among staff with our own organization

Diversity: Valuing the differences, skills, strengths, and perspectives of all

Stewardship: Using our resources prudently and nurturing our relationships in the community to be able to support and promote community health, now and for the future
