Community matters.

A part of our mission is education and advocacy. The Center for Closing the Health Gap President Renee Mahaffey Harris has been speaking at various community events sharing how we are here to serve YOU.

Highlighting food insecurities, life expectancy and overall health outcomes are the areas we focus on to help you advocate for your health.

Knowing what and how different factors affect US, can lead to early detection and prevention of certain diseases that face more often.

If you would like us to speak at your next event or learn more, you can DM us or visit our website at wwww.closingthehealthgap.org

We Must Save Us.

Information YOU need to know.

Our weekly update keeps you informed on decisions being made about our healthcare. Here at Closing the Health Gap we focus on minority communities and making sure you know how to better care and advocate for yourself.

Why do you ask? Because certain factors affect US differently. Listen as our CEO breaks down what that means. Coming up we’ll continue this conversation weekly.

Join us. We Must Save Us.

This Thanksgiving, we reflect on a simple truth at the heart of our work: We Must Save Us.

Not because we stand alone, but because the strongest change begins with neighbors who choose one another – at the table, on the block, in the clinic, and in the community.

We are grateful for YOU. For the parents juggling three jobs and still showing up to screenings. For caregivers holding families together. For partners, churches, barbershops and for volunteers who meet people where they are and with respect first.

Gratitude is powerful. Action is transformative. Over the long weekend, I invite you to join me in three small but mighty steps:
* Check in on someone – a caregiver, an elder, a friend managing a new diagnosis
* Know your numbers – blood pressure, A1C, cholesterol – and help a loved one know theirs
* Share resources: a ride to an appointment, a healthy recipe, a moment to listen

Your support makes Closing the Health Gap’s year-round programs possible: Caregiver Support, Do Right!, Nutrition Train the Trainer, the Diabetes Health Challenge, and more, reaching thousands across Greater Cincinnati with tools that save lives.

Thank you for the love you show this community, today and every day. May your holiday be filled with peace, rest, and renewed purpose.

We Must Save Us.

-Renee Mahaffey Harris, CEO, Closing the Health Gap
