At the Kansas Health Foundation, all of our work centers on our mission: To improve the health of all Kansans. To understand our Foundation’s mission, it’s helpful to know how we define health. We join with the World Health Organization in believing that health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.
