Founded by the 16th U.S. Surgeon General Dr. David Satcher, we develop diverse leaders, conduct equity-centered research, and drive systemic policy change to achieve health justice for all.
"We need leaders who first care enough.
We need leaders who learn enough.
We need leaders who do enough.
We need leaders who will persevere until the job is done."
Over the past decade, our grants and awards have supported transformative projects that promote health equity and cultivate leadership in underserved communities.
