Mission Statement & Strategic Priorities

The Mission Hill Health Movement (MHHM) was founded in the 1960s. At that time, the neighborhood was adjacent to some of the best medical facilities in the world, yet many residents did not have access to regular health care. Hospitals and medical institutions were buying homes and property anonymously in the area to expand their facilities into our residential neighborhood.  

Now, as a 501c non-profit organization, the MHHM works to ensure a livable environment and a healthy quality of life for all our residents.  The MHHM addresses the broad issues which affect its neighborhood and to improve the quality of health in Mission Hill.
​
In 2017, the MHHM Board adopted the following mission statement: 


The Mission Hill Health Movement strives to improve the health of Mission Hill Residents and the Community through partnerships, collaborations, education and health and wellness activities and programs.

The MHHM focuses on 4 major areas:
​

1. Improving health through increasing the availability and consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables.
