The Community Health Network’s (CHN) mission is to empower Rhode Islanders to manage their health by connecting them to evidence and community-based prevention and management programs aimed at improving their quality of life. These programs provide the tools to take control of your health and manage your health conditions with guidance and support on physical activity, nutrition, and emotional well-being.

At the CHN, we envision a state where people can prevent or self-manage chronic conditions and build healthy lifestyles with strong healthcare and caregiver support systems.

CHN classes have been proven to help people with chronic conditions such as pre-diabetes, diabetes management, and heart disease. Classes are also available to support caregivers, improve balance, manage chronic pain, help quit tobacco, and more!
