Mission
“CAPE’s Minority Health Initiative focuses on “eliminating health disparities” and enhancing the quality of life through education, advocacy, and quality health care services.

Brief History
CAPE’s Minority Health Initiative falls under the auspices of the Community Action Program of Evansville, a 501 c3 nonprofit organization and the Indiana Minority Health Coalition, a state-wide nonprofit organization. Founded in 1987, local minority health coalitions, with the assistance of the Indiana Black Legislative Caucus, met and developed the first 5-year Minority Health Strategic Plan for Indiana.
