The Race, Health
Care and the Law is dedicated to
improving the health status of persons who are discriminated
against based on race and/or ethnicity (with specific
attention on African Americans, Asian
Americans, Latino (a) Americans, Native Americans, and Pacific
Americans). We approach this goal
by helping legislators, policy makers, lawyers, health care
professionals and consumers examine race, health and human
rights; with particular attention on the role of domestic
and international law
in promoting and/or eliminating racial disparities in health
status and health care.
We participate in
local, state, national and international dialogue on health
care and human rights for ethnic Americans and racial minorities around the
world.
