Disrupting Privilege: Conversations on Race & Health

Healthcare in America has been unevenly distributed since its founding. Our healthcare system has failed many Americans. In the wake of the pandemic, these disparities have been caste in sharp relief as the country struggles to address the system's failures. Equal Hope is a healthcare education, advocacy and navigation organization whose mission is to eliminate health disparities across Chicago. Our unique multi-pronged approach to systemic change has been recognized as one of the most successful systems change organizations in the country. As a result of our work, the death rate for African American women diagnosed with breast cancer has dropped nearly 20% over the past decade. And we are only just getting started.
