TakeCare is a national Whole Health and well-being initiative that began in 2015 and is incorporated under the mission-aligned non-profit, Healthy US Collaborative Inc. (HUSC). HUSC has contracted with PIRE to implement TakeCare health programming, including a community-adapted 9-week evidence-based peer group program and implementation tools to increase community engagement in whole health and well-being, including community fairs and gatherings in Durham, NC. TakeCare has a goal of integrating into local organizations that promote and facilitate health and well-being in the community. With this goal in mind, TakeCare aims to be community-informed and community-based, incorporating the expertise of local health organizations and systems. PIRE is implementing and evaluating these efforts with a goal of statewide scale-up after the two-year pilot.
