for Urban Communities
The work we do is vital because we address the critical prevention and intervention concerns of urban communities through a comprehensive lens. We close disproportionate gaps in health, education, and workforce by eradicating generational barriers. Leveraging a combination of research-driven initiatives, community engagement, and targeted programs, residents lead safer, healthier, more prosperous lives.
