Community outreach initiatives

At the PAN Foundation, improving health access and advancing health equity starts with community outreach.

Through partnerships, local engagement, and national collaboration, we’re working to connect people with the resources they need to access affordable healthcare.

We listen first, then act. Whether we’re supporting local events, collaborating with grassroots organizations, or bringing together healthcare leaders, our goal is to build solutions with communities, not for them.

Our approach to community outreach

We are dedicated to addressing the barriers that prevent people from getting the affordable care they need. Our work centers on:

  • Convening task forces in cities facing significant health access challenges 
  • Elevating patient and caregiver voices through our national Patient and Family Advisory Council 
  • Partnering with community-based organizations to host local events and workshops 
  • Providing multilingual support to ensure inclusive access 

Introducing Stronger Together

One of our flagship efforts within this work is the Stronger Together initiative—a growing network of local task forces in cities across the country.

Each task force is leading efforts to address healthcare access challenges specific to their communities. Each task force member brings local knowledge, relationships, and solutions—but they’re not working in isolation.

Stronger Together connects these efforts into a national network. Through shared strategies, aligned goals, and consistent collaboration, we’re building a collective movement for change.

This approach ensures that while action is driven locally, we’re learning, adapting, and growing together. It’s about building power through partnership and turning shared commitment into meaningful, measurable impact.

Our national reach

Beyond these cities, PAN serves thousands of patients annually across all 50 states and U.S. territories through our financial assistance programs. We collaborate with a wide network of healthcare providers and advocacy groups to support patients’ access to vital medications and resources.

We also partner with organizations that support the entire patient journey, from disease-specific education to emotional support. And through our national advocacy and education initiatives, we reach millions of people each year from across the country. 

Work with us

We’re looking for mission-aligned partners in Atlanta, Dallas, and beyond. If your organization is working to improve access to care, we’d love to hear from you.
