H.E.A.L. Mississippi

Our mission is to reduce the impact of diabetes, obesity and other related cardiometabolic diseases in Mississippi.

Our vision is to establish a standard of care for people with diabetes and other cardiometabolic diseases that’s of high quality and easily accessible.

H.E.A.L. Mississippi was established in 2017 as a strategy to improve health outcomes related to preventable chronic diseases like diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and other related conditions that effect heart functioning in minority communities due to the health disparities and health inequities these communities face as it relates to having access to quality healthcare services. Our goal is to eliminate barriers Mississippians face in receiving quality healthcare services and provide equitable, easily accessible, quality healthcare services to all regardless of a person’s ability to pay. One way we achieve our goal is through hosting and participating in health fairs and health screening events.
