Improving care for people with complex needs

Our health and social systems will work for everyone when they work for those they are failing the most.

Currently, our healthcare and social systems are set up to treat individual needs in isolation. By piloting and demonstrating care models that work for those with the most complex needs, we work to transform and connect fragmented systems — in Camden, across New Jersey, and around the country — into equitable ecosystems of care.

Because when providers, organizations, and sectors work together, every individual — regardless of their needs — can receive person-centered care.

About the Camden Coalition

Advancing equitable ecosystems of care

No single organization can meet all of its community members’ needs. For truly coordinated whole-person care, organizations, sectors, fields, and professions must work together. We support South Jersey’s ecosystem of care as a designated Regional Health Hub, and work with communities across the country to build and strengthen their own care ecosystems.

Demonstrating what works

From new care management pilots to system redesign to national learning collaboratives, we demonstrate what works and what doesn’t to improve care, build an evidence base for the complex care field, and share best practices through teaching and training.

Pledge to Connect: Regional triage pilot

Regional triage aims to expand the success we achieved through complex case conferencing to a larger cohort of patients with complex needs and frequent emergency department use across multiple regional health systems.

Proven ‘housing first’ program lost half its state funding. Will next budget restore it?

NJ Spotlight News covered a recent visit by state legislators to the homes of two of our Housing First participants as we advocate for restored funding in 2025. As NJ Assembly Majority Leader Lou Greenwald said, “the [Camden Coalition] program’s been wildly successful. [To] actually walk through it and meet the people and the success stories after all this time is a wonderful experience, but I think it opens peoples’ eyes to be able to understand that this is working.”

The ROI of resource navigation: Findings from the Accountable Health Communities Model

In this national webinar, moderated by our President and CEO Kathleen Noonan, we explored the context of the AHC Model. View the webinar recording to gain insights into how the model was developed, what implementation looked like on the ground, and implications of the findings for care providers, payers, and policymakers.
