Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (1)
  1. $2.0 million spent. In 2024, Christian Healthcare Centers provided direct primary medical services to patients from 45 Michigan counties and 21 states from two locations Grand Rapids and Newaygo, MI. At the end of 2024, CHC had 3,434 active members/patients. The organization employs nine licensed medical providers. Through CHCs MemberCare Assistance Program, several hundred uninsured, under-served individuals and households received services at little or no cost. CHC Newaygo operates in one of Michigans most medically underserved counties, which is predominantly rural and, due to a shortage of medical services, residents are forced to drive longer distances to access care. CHCs presence has alleviated some of this need.
