Hire Local. Buy Local. Support Business Development.

In 2016 Healthy Neighborhoods Albuquerque was established as a tool and resource for anchor institutions to help alleviate the established barriers between anchors and community.

Our Mission

To develop partnerships and collaborative projects that leverage anchor institutions to buy local and hire local, as well as promote business development in underinvested and underheard neighborhoods.

Our Vision

To increase jobs and economic activity in disenfranchised and underinvested neighborhoods in Albuquerque via the collaborative work of HNA’s community partners and anchor institutions.

About anchor instituions

Anchor institutions are place-based, mission-driven entities such as hospitals, universities, and government agencies that leverage their economic power alongside their human and intellectual resources to improve the long-term health and social welfare of their communities.
