Honoring Legacy. Advancing Equity.
During Black History Month, we recognize the leaders whose courage and commitment helped shape a more just and equitable world.
We honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose vision of justice and equality continues to guide efforts toward dignity and opportunity for all.
We remember Dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler, the first Black woman in the United States to earn a medical degree, who dedicated her work to caring for underserved communities.
We recognize Dr. Charles R. Drew, whose groundbreaking work in blood banking transformed modern medicine and saved countless lives.
And we celebrate Fannie Lou Hamer, a fearless advocate for civil rights who understood that true equity includes access to healthcare, opportunity, and voice.
These leaders are but a few of the many individuals who have strived — and continue to strive — for health equity.
At Siskiyou Community Health Center, we remain committed to advancing access, breaking barriers, and ensuring compassionate, quality healthcare for every member of our community.
