We created Quest for Health Equity (Q4HE) because we believe that good health should be in reach for everyone — regardless of their zip code, income, or skin color.
But for too many Americans, especially members of historically marginalized communities, this is far from reality.
Through Q4HE, we’re on a quest to help remove systemic barriers, and improve access to the critical resources we all need to be healthy.
Building a better future
We’re focused on addressing inequities in under-resourced communities in two fundamental ways:
Collaborating on community-driven priorities
We’re collaborating side-by-side with local stakeholders to support community-led initiatives that address social determinants of health.
Advancing equity in diagnostics and screening
We’re improving access to testing and information, working to address bias in the diagnostic process, and making the research behind diagnostics more equitable.

Think nationally, act locally
We’ve got a bold vision, but real change happens 1 community—and 1 life—at a time. We’re driving initiatives in communities across the US with new areas of impact added on an ongoing basis.
