The Multicultural Health Institute

Welcome to

MHI seeks to level the healthcare playing field by promoting, educating, and ensuring equal healthcare access and treatment for vulnerable populations who experience disparities in rates of disease due to health inequities.

We support programs that educate, identify, and test for diseases such as Cancer, Cardiovascular Disease, COVID-19, Diabetes, Infant Mortality, HIV/AIDS, Obesity, Stroke, and other health issues affecting underrepresented communities across the United States which also help reduce the costs of healthcare.

We engage and empower communities to facilitate their self-advocacy and improved navigation through the healthcare system.
