Compassionate Home Health Care

Our program, "A Community that Cares," initially focused on providing in-home health care to individuals with functional limitations. However, in 2017, we recognized a pressing need for those living without access to essential cleaning and hygiene supplies. Consequently, we shifted our focus to supplementing health and cleaning supplies, expanding our reach from 900 individuals in the first year to over 10,000 cumulatively.

We advocate for individuals in Outagamie County and collaborate with 30 Home Community Based Services (HCBS) organizations. These partnerships address the needs of vulnerable community members, including Medicaid beneficiaries, Children’s Long-Term Support recipients, and those enrolled in programs like Family Care and IRIS.

Compassionate Home Health Care's Health and Hygiene Popup Hub aims to support families and early childcare professionals. By promoting parenting skills and providing access to supportive family services, we strive to prevent health and hygiene poverty. Additionally, we offer medical equipment donated by our partner organizations on a first-come, first-served basis, further enhancing our impact on community health and well-being.

Compassionate Home Health Care, established in 2010, is a non-profit organization dedicated to combating health and hygiene poverty in Brown, Calumet, Outagamie and Winnebago Counties. Our mission is to alleviate the financial burden of cleaning and hygiene supplies for individuals, particularly family caregivers, and those within the Home Community Based Services (HCBS) system. These organizations cater to seniors, youth, veterans, diverse families, and individuals with disabilities, addressing the adverse effects of the pandemic and bolstering community health. Our initiative ensures equitable access to essential supplies, empowering recipients toward independent living and enhancing their overall quality of life.
