The North Florida area is home to over a million residents. With this many people, the North Florida area is also home to a diverse number of pressing health needs.  In response to these health disparities, Jacksonville hosts many agencies which provide crucial services to those in need.  As part of the NFHC, members become an intricate part of the community, providing many important services to those in need.  One of the most powerful aspects of the North Florida Health Corps is that it is made up of unique individuals with fresh ideas and unbridled optimism who believe that we can individually and collectively help change the world.

A lot of people have the desire to make a difference; all too often they just don’t know how to do it or where to start.  By becoming a part of the North Florida Health Corps members are provided with the tools and opportunities to begin making tangible and measurable differences in the community and they are given the resources and inspiration to continue a life of service long after their commitment to AmeriCorps has been fulfilled.
