HonorHealth Desert Mission
Follow the deep roots of HonorHealth in our community and you’ll find that our legacy of caring started more than 90 years ago with a small desert clinic established to treat tuberculosis patients without the resources to secure hospital care.
Desert Mission has evolved, always committed to making healthcare and social services accessible to the most vulnerable members of our community. Today, Desert Mission offers four vital programs:
- Desert Mission Food Bank, with programs for emergency food
- Adult Day Health Care, a positive environment for seniors with physical or cognitive challenges
- Lincoln Learning Center, a licensed, accredited early childhood education program
- Living Well Program, connecting clients in need with the variety of programs and resources to sustain a positive lifestyle
Generous donors support Desert Mission operations or the program of their choice or the Desert Mission Endowment fund, which honors the legacy of this unique organization by providing a predictable, reliable source of revenue in perpetuity.
