How does Community Health Charities of California select its member charities?
Health charities choose to apply to Community Health Charities of California for membership. A charity must have local offices in the state of California, be health-related, and provide patient services, community education, and support medical research. It must also meet all the Criteria for Membership as established in the CHCC By-Laws. Information documenting its compliance with the Criteria is provided to the Community Health Charities of California Board’s Admission and Review Committee for a charity to be considered. Once accepted, annual updates of fiscal information are requested to keep Community Health Charities of California’s records current. Annual site visits are made by CHCC staff to each member chapter.
