The mission of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation is to improve the health and health care of all Americans. The goal is clear: To help our society transform itself for the better.
As the nation's largest philanthropy devoted solely to the public's health, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation has a unique capability and responsibility to confront the most pressing health and health care problems threatening our society. The Foundation's efforts focus on improving both the health of everyone in America, and their health care--how it's delivered, how it's paid for, and how well it does for patients and their families. As the Foundation invests in improving systems through which people receive care and in fostering environments that promote health and prevent disease and injury, they expect to achieve comprehensive, meaningful and timely change.

As part of this commemoration, the Foundation is saluting some of the programs they helped build and sustain that are improving health and health care for all Americans.
