Healthcare Without Limits: Removing Barriers, Restoring Lives

On Tuesday, August 5, 2025, CHC/ACT proudly partnered with Cornell Scott – Hill Health Center to host the 2025 Connecticut Healthcare for the Homeless Symposium in Bridgeport.

Hundreds of health care professionals came together to address the growing challenges of serving individuals without stable housing.
