Neighborhood Connections

Neighborhood Connections is Trillium's long-standing social determinants of health {SDOH) initiative, developed to fill coverage gaps in counties not served by North Carolina's Healthy Opportunities Pilots (HOP). 

Since approximately 2019, the program has coordinated with trusted local nonprofits and community-based organizations to deliver essential non-clinical supports such as food, housing assistance, transportation, and accessibility resources. 

Services are activated through care manager referrals, ensuring needs are linked directly to member care plans. This initiative reflects Trillium's belief that better health begins with stable social conditions-and provides a nimble, locally-driven model for advancing equity and access across its regions.
