Improving the health, wellness and overall quality of life for those living in the westernmost region of North Carolina
Nantahala Health Foundation is committed to collaborating with organizations to build capacity and address areas that significantly affect the health and well-being of all people in the community we serve.
Nantahala Health Foundation, a public 501(c)3 nonprofit, is a successor foundation charged with improving the health, wellness and overall quality of life for those living in the westernmost region of North Carolina, including Cherokee, Clay, Graham, Jackson, Macon, and Swain counties, as well as the Qualla Boundary.
Having evolved from the sale of Mission Health System to HCA, Nantahala Health Foundation is overseen by a Board of Directors reflecting the diversity of the six counties. This diversity is demonstrated in where they live, their expertise regarding the Social Determinants of Health, as well as by race and gender.
