Real Support for Real Life

CHAN helps High Desert families build skills for everyday life. Learn how to use less energy at home, make healthy meals on a budget, prepare for emergencies, and find trusted immigration information. Practical education. Local support.

Our Mission is to provide essential health education and promotion activities to at-risk children and families. The purpose of CHAN is to help reduce health disparities and improve health outcomes among minorities.

We serve Victorville, Hesperia, Apple Valley, Adelanto, and surrounding communities.

Ask Elena, CHAN's virtual guide, anything about our programs and services.

Education for Everyday Life

Your power bill should not be a monthly surprise. Understanding how your home uses energy is a place to start. CHAN’s Energy Conservation & Transition program focuses on what drives energy use and what you can do to bring the cost down.

That same practical approach runs through our nutrition, disaster preparedness, car seat safety, and immigration advocacy programs. Learn skills you can use at home and share with your family.

CHAN does not currently offer utility bill assistance.
