Kaitlyn Gabhart and Hawk Royer, Founders of HHI
About Us
Healthy Hoosiers Initiative (HHI) is a non-profit organization focused on improving the health of Hoosiers, one community at a time. With a strong focus on collaboration, HHI plans to leverage the available resources in each community to innovate solutions to address their most pressing health needs.
The founders of HHI grew up in Daviess County, Indiana, the birthplace of our initial efforts to create a model that can be replicated across our great state. We have identified three primary areas of potential improvement in our community: Preventive Services, Behavioral Healthcare, and Infant/Maternal Health. In our efforts to improve the health status of our entire community, HHI will work alongside healthcare providers and collaborate with experts to generate creative solutions to stubborn problems.
