The mission of Crenshaw Health Partners Inc (CHPI) is to improve health literacy, promote health and healthy options while providing quality access to health-related resources. We are focused on decreasing the high rates of morbidity and mortality, particularly within the Black and Brown communities. There is so much health-related information in the air waves which often tends to be confusing even to the highly educated while to others, reliable and accurate information may not be readily available.
Health literacy emphasizes the ability to use health information, rather just understanding it and focuses on the ability to make well-informed decisions rather than appropriate ones. It’s the extent to which folks have the ability to 4nd, understand and use information and services that help to make health-related decisions and actions for themselves and others, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
We continue to provide you with information, education and access to quality health-related resources via various community outreach activities. As we reconfigure our operations in compliance with COVID19 restrictions, we are preparing to launch our interactive Healthy Options Program Series (H.O.P.S) in the near future.
