We are a Public Health Initiative dedicated to empowering the health and well-being of Black individuals and communities. Our mission is to bridge gaps, foster community resilience, and promote holistic health through tailored interventions, resources, and support.
Black individuals face unique challenges related to historical trauma, cultural, and socioeconomic stressors.
By focusing on Black individuals, ThriveTogether can tailor interventions to their specific needs.
Black individuals can seemingly be “hard to reach” audience.
Reducing health inequalities requires targeted efforts.
Increasing Health Awareness & Access:
- Encourage Black Individuals to access healthcare services, including preventative screenings, and resources.
- Raise awareness about common health conditions affecting Black communities, such as Cardiovascular Diseases(High Blood Pressure), Obesity, Diabetes, and maternal – infant health.
Enhancing Health Literacy
- Provide culturally sensitive health education.
- Address misconceptions, stigma, and historical barriers and socioeconomic stressors related to health.
- Educate the community about preventive measures, mental health, and chronic disease management.
Building Community Resilience and Support
- Foster a sense of belonging, social connectedness, and a network of mutual support within the Black community.
- Promote health equity and address systemic barriers and social determinants of health.
