Mission & Focus Areas

Christus Health states that its mission is to support the health care ministries of its sponsoring congregations in extending the healing ministry of Jesus Christ in conformity with the Roman Catholic Church.

The Community Impact Fund’s current priorities align with the 2026–2028 Community Health Needs Assessments and cover maternal and early childhood health, school-age children and adolescent health, adult health, and older adult health. Listed needs include access to care and healthy foods, behavioral health, healthy births, education, poverty, chronic diseases, and housing instability.

The fund supports local nonprofits and collaborative efforts in the primary service areas of CHRISTUS Health hospitals. For example, grantee Catholic Charities of Dallas describes its mission as addressing the root causes of poverty, hunger, and homelessness; the Regional East Texas Food Bank says it fights hunger and feeds hope in East Texas; and the Society of St. Vincent de Paul Charitable Pharmacy of North Texas says it provides free health-sustaining prescriptions to lower-income, uninsured Texans.

Grantmaking

In filing year 2025, Christus Health reported 97 grants totaling $4,304,329. Awards ranged from $5,182 to $150,000, with a median grant of $40,000.

Among the largest reported awards were $150,000 to Catholic Charities of Dallas for food pantry operations; $120,000 to the Congregation of the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word for work involving disaster preparedness in Haiti and support for single mothers pursuing post-secondary education in San Antonio; and $112,500 to St. Vincent de Paul Pharmacy for free prescriptions and a garden area. Other $100,000 awards included grants for behavioral health support in an emergency room, nurse care coordination, food security, homelessness services, and counseling.
