We are thrilled to share a major milestone for A Place To Go CLE. We are formalizing a collaborative partnership and referral workflow with Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield (Ohio Medicaid – SDOH Whole Health) to provide comprehensive supportive services for members across Cuyahoga and Lake County.
True wellness extends far beyond the clinic walls. By bridging the gap between managed care healthcare systems and grassroots community action, our shared goal is to help members navigate Social Determinants of Health (SDOH), remove barriers to care, achieve their employment goals, and build long-term financial stability.
Through this streamlined ecosystem, we are bringing our core service strengths directly to the table to shift acute, high-cost crises into stable, preventative, and routine care:
📍 Community Resource Navigation: Direct stabilization linking individuals to housing and food security.
🤝 Peer Support & Advocacy: Trust-building and healthcare literacy driven by lived-experience mentorship.
💼 Workforce & Employment Integration: Structured pathways to sustainable employment, application assistance, and soft-skills readiness.
🚗 Mobility & Access Solutions: Addressing transportation and logistical barriers so members reliably reach vital medical appointments.
📊 Accountability & Seamless Coordination
Our workflows are built for closed-loop accountability. By tracking member engagement, resource connection rates, and stability milestones, we ensure that every internal referral translates into a documented step forward.
We are incredibly excited to collaborate with the Anthem team to share our services across internal departments and optimize our presence on Findhelp (Community Resource Link).
Thank you to Jacqueline Capello, Nikesha N. Yarbrough, and the entire team at Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield for recognizing the vital power of community-rooted support. Let’s build a stronger, more stable safety net together! 🤝🌱
