The RHECs are a vital component of the National Partnership for
Action to End Health Disparities (NPA). The NPA was established to mobilize a
nationwide, comprehensive, community-driven, and sustained approach to
combating health disparities and to move the nation toward achieving health
equity. RHEC members represent communities impacted by health disparities,
state and local government agencies, tribes, healthcare providers and systems,
health plans, businesses, academic and research institutions, foundations, and
other organizations. They play a critical role in implementing the NPA and
represent a nationwide commitment for addressing health equity and closing the
health gap for racial, ethnic, and underserved communities. For a list of RHEC
