Paths to Black Health
Paths to Black Health
The purposes of the program are to:
Identify disparities impacting African American health arising from cumulative and historical discrimination and disadvantages in multiple systems. These may include, but are not limited to, housing, education, employment, gun violence, incarceration, environmental factors, and health care discrimination.
Develop community-driven solutions that incorporate a multisector approach to addressing identified disparities impacting African American health.
The Office of African American Health released a new request for proposals (RFP) for the Paths to Black Health Grant Program. The goal of the program is to invest in community solutions to enhance the vibrant and thriving African American community in Minnesota. This will help reduce the health disparities arising from cumulative and historical discrimination and disadvantages in multiple systems, as well as historical trauma.
