AccessHealth

We have great news to share. We’ve received a 2024 DEI grant. The DEI grant helps AccessHealth take care of our diverse patients, most of whom are from different racial or ethnic backgrounds, by supporting two Community Health Workers (CHWs). These CHWs help make our neighborhoods healthier by providing healthcare services and improving the quality of life. They also train AmeriCorp members to use our Health Navigation Platform (HNP), which connects patients with local resources to meet their basic needs.

Now in its fourth year, the DEI Grant Program will support more than 52,000 people in the community through 22 healthy neighborhood programs, 12 economic empowerment programs and 13 educational empowerment programs.
