- National Center on Minority Health and Health Disparities
The purpose of the Center for the Promotion of Health Disparities Research is to increase the research, scholarship, and training opportunities for faculty and students in the area of health disparities.
It is our hope that California State University San Bernardino will become a leader in health disparities research that could benefit the Inland Empire, nation, and the international community.
