The Role of <strong>CCHF</strong><br />
There is a growing movement of Christians who are committed to bring healing to marginalized communities in Jesus’<br />
name. <strong>CCHF</strong> is the joint effort of those in the movement to help others find their place in our common cause, persevere<br />
in our mutual calling, and grow in our understanding of what it means to be ambassadors of Christ in healthcare and in<br />
communities of need. Simply put, the role of <strong>CCHF</strong> is to support and grow this movement. We do this through..<br />
1.Relational Network<br />
The most powerful thing about <strong>CCHF</strong> is the actual community. It is real and relational. We share our experiences and insights and help one another. We<br />
help members of this movement find one another and connect in meaningful ways that honors Christ and advances His cause.<br />
2.National & Regional Events<br />
The most visible of these is the <strong>CCHF</strong> conference - a 3-day event with inspiring speakers, informative workshops, and opportunities to network. Christian<br />
leaders and pioneers are available to newcomers to both share and to listen to the new voices in this community.<br />
3.Students & Residents<br />
Through collaborative relationships with groups like CMDA, MCO and InterVarsity, <strong>CCHF</strong> practitioners speak to campus groups at over 100 campuses<br />
every year. We provide clinical experiences through preceptor and internship programs in Christian clinics. And we help residents find placements at<br />
clinics where they can integrate faith with clinical care for the medically underserved.<br />
4.Publications<br />
<strong>CCHF</strong> publishes books like Upholding the Vision and Faith in the Trenches, podcasts like <strong>CCHF</strong>|Talk, newsletters, and other literature that gives voice to<br />
those in our community who help us stay fruitful and effective in living out the gospel through healthcare among those who are poor.<br />
5.www.cchf.org<br />
The <strong>CCHF</strong> website is a “toolshed” where participants in the movement share resources to help you grow in conviction and ability to fulfill your calling in<br />
healthcare. It is constantly growing as the community adds content, and the dialogue progresses as we grapple with what it means to live out the gospel<br />
through healthcare among the poor.<br />
