& FIGHT BACK
Our Community is Dying!
In a 2019 study, it was shown that Southeast San Diego has the shortest life expectancy in the county. Its crucial that we focus our attention on ways to reverse these statistics.
JIREH Providers is a dedicated team of community advocates with equity in healthcare at the forefront of our mission.
Our Current Focus:
Covid-19: Black, Hispanic, & *NHPI community people still have the highest rates of infection, hospitalization, and death.
Heart Disease - #1 leading cause of death in the Black community.
Maternal/Infant Health - Black women are dying at 3x the rate of white women.
What We Do:
Health Advocacy Health Education
Preventative Care Services
Through all of our program initiatives we find innovative ways to wrap our arms around the community with preventive care services that say - We Care.
