Minority Health and Health Disparities Research and Education Act

The Minority Health and Health Disparities Research and Education Act is a law in the United States that promotes better understanding and reduction of health differences among racial and ethnic groups. It encourages research to identify why certain populations experience worse health outcomes and supports education and programs to improve their health. The goal is to ensure all individuals have access to quality care and can achieve optimal health, regardless of their background. This legislation underscores the importance of addressing disparities to create a fairer, healthier society.
