About the NLC
The 2025 Community Care Hub National Learning Community (NLC) brings together community-focused social care organizations from across the nation to foster shared learning, engagement and capacity building for Community Care Hubs (CCHs). Over nine months (January–August 2025), the NLC will provide tailored support and opportunities for growth to help participating CCHs strengthen their ability to address non-medical drivers of health through contracted partnerships with local health care organizations (e.g., health plans and health systems).
The NLC is designed to help participating organizations:
- Build peer-to-peer connections and share resources with CCHs across the country.
- Expand operational readiness and service capacity.
- Engage with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) from across the social care ecosystem.
- Enhance your ability to engage in contractual relationships with health care entities such as health systems, ACOs and health plans.
Participants Chosen for the 2025 Community Care Hub National Learning Community (NLC)
USAging’s Center of Excellence to Align Health and Social Care (COE) is excited to announce the selection of participants for its 2025 Community Care Hub National Learning Community (NLC)—a learning opportunity that will foster shared learning, engagement and capacity building for Community Care Hubs (CCHs). A CCH serves as a community-focused, regional, statewide, or multi-state umbrella organization that coordinates administrative services and supports for a network of social care providers (e.g., multiple area agencies on aging, “AAAs”, Centers for Independent Living, “CILs” and/or other community-based organizations, “CBOs”).
