Our Purpose
Our Advocate initiative advances policy, systems, and structural change to achieve equity in health. We support organizing and collective action to eliminate disparities in health and well-being based on race, ethnicity, national origin, socioeconomic status, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, ability, environment, and background.
