President and Board Chair Welcome

We are pleased to present the 2018 CHHSM Annual Report, Together in Ministry.

We trust that you will feel the dynamic and vital presence of our member ministries every time you see them working together, sharing resources, inspiring others and realizing their vision of service. CHHSM’s connection to the United Church of Christ and the Wider Church is evident every time our member ministries come together. Whether it is at the CHHSM Annual Gathering, regional affinity group meetings, Conference annual meetings or Association and local Church meetings, the presence of the health and human service part of our Church is robust and meaningful.

The innovative and profound ways in which care is provided, the resourceful and sustainable nature of business operations, and the global nature of mission and vision remain fundamental to our work. You will see real-life examples in the photographs and stories that follow. You will be reassured that this ministry will continue to grow as you review the financial data. And, you will be motivated to join us when you think about ways that you too can make a difference in this world.

2018 represented another year of stable and sustainable financial performance–A year of thoughtful and strategic change in the structures and business models necessary for us to do our work. And a year of progression and new ideas in offering scalable and localized access to leadership development programs.

CHHSM’s core values drive our beliefs and actions. Courage, Stewardship, Serving Leadership, Covenant and Inclusion guide our collaborative ministry as we work together toward our vision of creating a just, caring and compassionate world.

We invite you to review this report and to discover the various expressions of the Church, which are historical in origin, progressive in their ability to heal, and faithful in their commitment to the millions of clients, residents and patients served.

Driving Change

Advocacy-focused programming brought important topics to the forefront at the 2018 CHHSM Annual Gathering.

Embodying Love

CHHSM member ministries embody the 3 Great Loves in everyday acts of kindness.

CHHSM member ministries continue to lead the way in responding to the UCC’s 3 Great Loves initiative. The initiative champions  Love of Neighbor, Love of Children, and Love of Creation.

Three Great Loves is part of a denomination-wide effort that is about engaging the UCC to take action and to show the impact of individual ministries, and the UCC, working together as one church, with one voice and one vision – a vision of A Just World for All.

UCHS Practices Love of Neighbor in Response to Hurricane Florence

 In the aftermath of Hurricane Florence, CHHSM member United Church Homes and Services quickly organized efforts within its communities in response to an all-church call for 500 Emergency Clean-up Buckets.

In keeping with the UCC’s 3 Great Loves initiative, CHHSM’s child, youth and family service ministries often are on the front lines in providing support and care to migrant and immigrant persons

2018 Social Accountability Report

At CHHSM, we look at social accountability as part of our mission and as a means of showing our ministries in action. We seek to build bridges with our members, our partners, our constituents and all those we encounter in our passion-driven ministry of health and human services. We accomplish this through volunteerism, through pro bono consultations by CHHSM staff and board, through contributions, donations and scholarships, and by using capital resources to support our member ministries. And we do all of this with a lens towards the 3 Great Loves initiative of the United Church of Christ.

CHHSM Board and Staff are actively supporting other ministries across the nation with their time, talents and treasures.

CHHSM Board and Staff regularly provide complimentary consultations to other member ministries, their peer organizations and all settings of the wider Church.

Total
Social Accountability Impact:

$154,000

The social accountability impact of CHHSM as an organization can be quantified in dollars but our collective engagement with the wider Church is measured in a more meaningful way when we look at how we have built bridges to local Churches, Associations, Conferences, the National setting of the UCC and all our ministry partners.
