Making Prevention Possible

Good quality health care is essential for all Californians to have long, healthy lives. By investing in creating healthier communities that prevent chronic disease, injury, and inequitable health conditions, we keep people from needing care in the first place, improve lives, and make healthcare dollars go further.

WHY ARE MORE BLACK & BROWN CALIFORNIANS DYING OF COVID?

The devastating outcomes of health inequities can be clearly seen in times of crisis like the COVID-19 pandemic. Black, Brown and low-income Californians with largely preventable illnesses such as heart disease, and diabetes are at higher risk of death and we are unable to meet the basic needs of our most vulnerable residents. Now more than ever, we have a collective responsibility to invest in the capacity of local health departments and community organizations to create conditions that prevent people from needing care in the first place.
