About Us

Unite New York is a coordinated care network of health and social service providers. Partners in the network are connected through Unite Us’ shared technology platform, which enables them to send and receive electronic referrals, address people’s social needs, and improve health across communities. Unite New York is sponsored by Adirondack Health Institute, Alliance for Better Health, Catholic Family Center, and Central New York Care Collaborative. The network is supported by a New York-based Unite Us team focused on community engagement, network health and optimization, and customer success.

Joining the network is at no cost for community-based organizations and many organizations that are considered part of the safety net, like community health centers, tribal clinics, and mental health centers.

Healthy Together empowers Alliance to cultivate strong and meaningful community partnerships built upon a shared belief that no individual should fall through the cracks.

ADK Wellness Connections

The ADK Wellness Connections network, sponsored by Adirondack Health Institute, launched in October 2018 and covers a 9-county region (Clinton, Essex, Franklin, Fulton, Hamilton, Saratoga, St. Lawrence, Warren, and Washington counties). There are three Coordination Centers across the network divided up by geographic service area, and each Coordination Center is able to receive Assistance Requests from individuals in need from the ADK Wellness Connections website.

CNYCares Referral Network

The CNYCares Referral Network is a coordinated care network of health, community-based and social service providers working together to build healthier communities by addressing social determinants of health. This network is led by the Central New York Care Collaborative.

The 360 Collaborative Network

The 360 Collaborative network, sponsored by Catholic Family Center, launched in April 2018. The collaborative has grown through mergers with Your Health Partners of the Finger Lakes, LLC Behavioral Health Community Collaborative, IVMF, HHUNY (Health Homes of Upstate NY), and the RMAPI Adult Mentoring program. In 2019, the NYServes Upstate network, that provides programs and services for veterans and military families, joined the network with support from the Institute for Veterans and Military Families.

Stakeholders

We can’t address social determinants of health unless we commit to collaborate. Individuals have needs that can’t be addressed by one person or one organization. A coordinated network that binds the community to create civic value is the only way this can be done. Our network responds to, rather than dictates, community needs by providing services that focus on improving the health of underserved members of our community.

For over 100 years, Catholic Family Center has strived to fulfill its mission to support the poor and most vulnerable achieve their fullest human potential. We know this goal can’t be attained through the work of any one service or safety net provider, so we are committed to driving the expansion of Unite Us network of providers so that the most vulnerable in our community can have access to what they need to thrive.
