Advancing Health Equity – Addressing Healthcare Disparities
At ThriveHumanity, we strongly believe all people should have a fair and just opportunity to live a longer, healthier life free from cancer regardless of how much money they make, the color of their skin, their sexual orientation, gender identity, disability status, or where they live.
For us, health equity means everyone has a fair and just opportunity to prevent, find, treat, and survive cancer. It requires us to eliminate barriers and address needs to ensure everyone has the same opportunity to be healthy and cancer-free.

Economic Inclusion for Family Wellbeing
We believe a nation is possible where families have access to affordable, quality childcare and where no one must choose between paying for meals or paying their bills.
Equitable and Accountable Public Health and Healthcare Systems
We advocate for a healthcare system that provides respectful, high-quality care for everyone and a Public Health System that works together with communities to dismantle structural racism as a root cause of health disparities in America.
Healthy and Equitable Community Conditions
We envision flourishing communities where everyone has access to clean, safe drinking water and safe, stable housing; where jobs pay a living wage; where we have torn down the walls of segregation and all residents receive the respect and dignity they deserve.
