Mission statement:	Our mission is focus on the social issues concerning healthcare. Our society health is focus on the treatment not the cure or prevention. We look to change this outlook by creating a global network of facilities focus on the teaching of growing healthy food, and the practice of prevention to the uninsured nationally and the children internationally.
Year established (YYYY):	2009
Organizational structure:	The organization focus makes the structure a three legged task. The first was in education of the uninsured everywhere that prevention is the first offense to a healthy life. The second is to teach then the tools necessary to grow the food to start living a healthy sustainable life. The third phase is to create a preventive care facility where they can reinforce their healthy life, and receive medical help if needed to be healthy again. This three prong approach bring a team of permaculturist, healthcare educators, and medical professionals together with a mobile facility that is year-round creating healthy communities.
Number and type of members:	There was 47 Million Uninsured in America in 2009. Our organization was named after the people we serve. With the Covid 19 crisis now America has 62 Million Uninsured. Again America is in healthcare crisis in 2020. Less then 16% of all medical professionals practice prevention. The healthcare system in America is a model that focus on treatment and monetary value at the expense of unhealthy people.
