Learn more about the link between minorities and health

Racial and ethnic minorities continue to lag behind other populations in many health outcomes. They are:

  • less likely to get the preventive care needed to stay healthy
  • more likely to suffer from serious illnesses, such as diabetes or heart disease
  • less likely to have access to quality health care when they do get sick

The Office of Minority Health's programs, policies and practices address such factors, with the goal of affording everyone an opportunity to live a long, healthy and productive life.
