Culturally-sensitive healthcare for all.
Eliminating healthcare disparities by connecting patients with Black healthcare providers.
Inequities in Healthcare have had a profound impact on the African American community.
Black women are 4x more likely to die giving birth than their white counterparts.
In the US, Black babies die at 3x the rate of white newborns during initial hospital stays. When Black doctors cared for Black babies, their mortality rate was cut in half.
Black men over-index on preventable diseases like hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease.
