Our Programs Are Built To Advance Health Equity
Measure What Matters
Through community and academic partnerships, we prioritize following data to identify and address inequities. We are focused on meaningful data that represents vulnerable populations fairly and holistically in our work to move the needle.
Address Underlying Factors
Health is impacted by multiple factors, not just medicine. Social determinants like access to healthy food, affordable housing, a stable environment, and quality education are important drivers of health. We concentrate on these upstream factors as the key to sustainable, generational change.
Empower Our Communities
We value everyone’s voice. Our programs take a grassroots approach, targeting unique needs with unique solutions and offering ownership and action to those in the communities we serve.
Collaborating For Impact
Our ability to affect change grows as our network of trusted partners expands. We rely on our partners’ expertise and connections in their communities. Through supportive synergistic relationships, we can reach further and provide more.
A Healthy Partnership
Health Equality Saves Lives
On September 27th, 2022 the Bread Of Life organization along with Quest Diagnostic's "Quest For Health Equity" announced that the Bread of Life, Inc. of Houston would be launching a new initiative called the Healthy Houston Collective. This new initiative will be supported by a $3.8 million dollars grant from Quest Diagnostic/Quest Health Equity in order to assist with combating healthy inequality with a goal of creating access to better health care for all Houstonians.
Healthy Houston Collective
Community Care : Impact
The Community Care Program utilizes certified Community Health Workers who live within underserved communities to help connect their neighbors to the healthcare system. While they are not doctors or healthcare professionals, they serve as powerful advocates. The Community Health Workers will work with and empower individuals by addressing social determinant barriers and support with long-term health gains through health education and connections to services.
