Our Services

What do you need to create a safer, healthier, and more equitable environment? Let us help.

At Right To Health, we’re committed to closing health disparities in our Portland metro community. It’s not enough to publish another body of research that proves social determinants of health because often this work neglects to connect the historic, very intentional oppressions that dominant culture must be held accountable to change. How we close disparities is multi-tiered: by education, clinical outreach, and activism.

Racism is a public health crisis and has been for centuries. However, we’re not about shaming and blaming white Americans, but asking to come together to fundamentally change healthcare policies and protocols so no one is left behind.

Our services reflect this commitment. From lunch and learns to workshops to multi-month retainers, let us help you develop health equity programs that serve everyone in your organization.

Our services include:

  • Health and Wellness Workshops

  • Health Equity Consultation

  • Onsite Mobile Unit Health Screenings

  • Racial Equity and Health Education and Program Building
