Institutions and people will take actions so that systematically marginalized people and minorities are able to assert sovereignty over their own bodies and futures, and lay full claim to quality healthcare, capital, and power. As a result, our society and the communities within it will be thriving with people of color at the helm.
To achieve this, systemically privileged institutions– beginning with the Tara Health Foundation– must let go of their historically unjust status, capital, and power. The vision of the Tara Health Foundation is that institutions and people must take actions to relinquish capital and power at the intersection of health, economic power, rights, safety, and education. This practice must be widely incorporated into public policy and all sectors so that racism and sexism in the US are eradicated.
