"Because health is determined by
social conditions."

Community Connections

The places where we live, work, play and learn affect our health, including in the extended East Palo Alto community. To live a healthy life, advances in our community are needed not only in health care but also in education, childcare, housing, access to food, our environment, youth, business, law, media, community planning, creativity, safety and transportation.

In order to be healthier, we need access to RESOURCES to help us meet our essential needs and we also need to join together in unity with purpose to ADVOCATE for ourselves and our community.

ADVOCACY: Everyone wants the best for themselves and their families and everyone has something to contribute.

Unity requires effort and an intentional process, and we need to be united to achieve a healthier community and stronger families. In the extended East Palo Alto community we value different cultures and we want to create space to share across ethnic, socioeconomic and generational differences.

Community Videos/Blogs/Forums

Videos, Blogs and Forums on topics related to promoting a healthy environment for the extended East Palo Alto Community. We invite recommendations on topics for discussions and presentations. We also invite videos on topics relevant to the community, but reserve the right to have them reviewed by a community advisory panel to ensure the absence of hate speech or advocating for illegal activities or the showing of material that is not appropriate for vulnerable youth. Please contact Herban Health by email and or by phone or text to discuss the placing of a video or the recommendation of a topic for community discussion.
