Network Table: Northwestern Cecil County

“The belief everyone in our human family can have a better life moves us beyond transactional responses to human needs and is an invitation to develop the human potential in each other. When people have access to supportive relationships and social networks, they thrive. When they don’t, their human potential collapses.”

Jon Katov, Founder and CEO of Open Table

Network Table is an evidence-driven model that trains people to form teams that access their skills, and personal and business networks to empower people with complex needs to achieve goals that could not realize on their own. Complex needs stem from poverty, chronic and mental illness, and other challenges. The Open Table evidence base is conclusive about the positive effects of social and relational capital applied at the individual or family level. Studies show that functioning levels of the individual or family, the Table volunteers, and the community are all transformed by the process.

Healthcare organizations use Open Table models to address adverse SDOH (social determinants of health) of people with complex needs, including poverty, isolation, mental health, high-risk pregnancy, substance use disorder, chronic disease, and others. Outcomes include improved health and quality of life.

The Network Table^TM: Northwestern Cecil County has volunteers throughout Cecil County and works with friends from five local family practices: Stone Run Family Medicine, Clinica Medica Primaria de Rising Sun, Dr. Neil Lattin’s office, West Cecil Health Center, and Wolf Medical Group. 

Network Table is a model of Open Table, LLC. For more information about Network Table and primary practice in Cecil County, please read this press release.
