What's happening at Santa Clara Family Health Plan
Giving back at Christmas
Our 2nd Annual Holiday Toy Giving Program was held at the SCFHP Blanca Alvarado Community Resource Center on December 14. Over 300 gifts were distributed to children of the health plan who enjoyed decorating their own stockings and ornaments.
We are thankful to all our SCFHP staff who coordinated this event, bought gifts, or volunteered their time.

Thank you, everyone for your great suggestions!
As a reminder, the Employee Engagement Committee (EEC) receives a few different types of suggestions in our Suggestion Box. They include:
-
Requests for general company info or updates.
-
Benefits questions.

Reply: In alignment with our mission, vision, and values, SCFHP provides sponsorships to over 50 organizations each year to support our health care safety net and strengthen community health. With these sponsorships, there are often events and activities, such as runs and races, that provide great ways to engage with our community and each other. We are discussing how to make even more of these opportunities available to staff. There are a number of events that celebrate diversity, equity and inclusion that would be wonderful to take part in! When opportunities are identified, we will share updates with staff on how to participate. |
Stay tuned for more suggestion box updates at our All Staff meetings, and in future issues of the Inside the Plan!
