The Community Health Toolkit
The Community Health Toolkit (CHT) is a project by a group of leading organizations who have come together to support the development of digital health initiatives in the hardest-to-reach areas. It provides a collection of open source technologies and open access design, technical, and implementer resources that help you build and deploy digital tools for community health. Together, we envision a world where healthcare is of the highest attainable quality, equitable, accessible, and delivered by people who are trusted in their communities.

Creating Open Source Technology Together
Developers and designers in our open source community work together to build and expand the technical components that powers apps built with the Community Health Toolkit, explore new integrations, and create reference applications that serve as templates for the creation of new digital health apps.
According to OpenHub.net, our Core Framework is in the top 10% of highly-active open source projects around the globe. Want to join us or build a new integration? Check out our “Get Involved” page on GitHub. or join us on our Community Forum!
