What We Do
At Community Partners for Better Health, we're driven by a profound purpose: to reshape the health narrative for people of color in Nevada.

Our focus is steadfast - to bridge the health divide between people of color and non-minorities. Every day, we work towards a vision of health equity where everyone enjoys the highest level of health and well-being.

Education: We view education as a cornerstone of our work. We are devoted to providing individuals, organizations, and communities with the knowledge they need to make informed health decisions. Recognizing that health is influenced by a wide array of factors, from income and education to housing and neighborhood conditions, we strive to address these social determinants to enhance overall health equity.
