Our Story—Black Health Inequities

MCHWC was founded by a grassroots effort to serve those experiencing poor health outcomes and lack of access to healthcare, especially African Americans, residents of public housing, and the homeless. Our patients represent all ethnicities and ages, but most deal every day with Social Determinants of Health – the reality is that their zip code has a greater impact on personal health than their genetics.
