April Celebrates National Minority Health Month

April is National Minority Health Month, a time to raise awareness about health disparities that continue to affect racial and ethnic minority communities across the United States. The month also highlights the importance of improving access to quality healthcare and promoting health equity. The theme, “Be the Source for Better Health,” encourages individuals and organizations to share trusted health information and support healthy decisions in their communities. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Minority Health leads the national observance, working to advance policies and programs that help close the gap in health outcomes.
