Equal Hope’s mission is to save lives by eliminating health inequities.
We do so by challenging the status quo – striving to understand the context of people’s lives and the barriers they experience, so we can help them achieve their best health and a longer life.
Through research, quality assessment & improvements, advocacy, education and patient navigation, we approach health holistically to achieve sustainable outcomes and true health equity.
The University of Illinois Cancer Center is proud to serve the diverse communities of Chicago. As an integral part of the healthcare fabric of Chicago, we hold a unique position in ensuring that the health needs of the city are met with an equity lens. Equal Hope is a key partner ensuring that the City of Chicago gets the health care it deserves. Part of Equal Hope’s mission is to challenge the status quo in healthcare, and that is exactly why they are UI Cancer Center’s partner in ensuring that healthcare is equitable across Chicago’s communities.”
