The Center for Black Health & Equity
About
The Center for Black Health & Equity envisions a world where all people of African descent are able to obtain optimal health outcomes. We engage health care organizations, public health officials, faith leaders, and African American communities in health promotion and disease prevention work. Our mission is to facilitate programs and services to benefit communities and people of African descent . We do this by building community capacity, developing community infrastructure, and advocating for equity-centered policies . We are committed to addressing the social and economic injustices that have marginalized our communities and led to deep health disparities . We apply our proven framework for policy and social change to our work in tobacco control , COVID-19 , HIV/AIDS , women’s health , cancer, mental health and other disparities . To identify, reduce, and eliminate the social, economic, and environmental conditions that result in health disparities, The Center for Black Health & Equity’s (The Center) equity-centered approach helps us build community capacity, develop community infrastructure, and advocate for equity-centered policies. The Center maintains collaborative partnerships with public and private institutions to provide training, funding, and support to marginalized communities as part of national efforts to ensure access to health education, information, and resources for all people.
