Mission
The public nonprofit was created to address health disparities, advance health equity, and tackle the social determinants of health (SDOH), recognizing that social, economic, and environmental factors significantly influence health outcomes. The organization?s mission is to promote fairness and justice in healthcare access, ensuring that all individuals, regardless of background, have the opportunity to achieve their highest possible standard of health. Health disparities refer to avoidable, unjust differences in health outcomes that disproportionately affect socially and economically disadvantaged groups, while health equity represents the commitment to eliminating these disparities by focusing on the needs of those most at risk.
