Who We Are

The Summit Health Institute for Research and Education, Inc. (SHIRE) is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to the promotion of health and wellness for all people. SHIRE works to eradicate health disparities and aid vulnerable populations in attaining optimal health. Communities, government agencies, corporations, and foundations look to SHIRE as an effective and trusted resource to identify inequities, propose solutions, and galvanize grassroots groups to address access to health care and quality of care issues among the underserved, particularly communities of color.

The Institute of Medicine's landmark report, Unequal Treatment (2002), informed many and reminded others of the moral imperative underlying the nation’s commitment to eliminate racial and ethnic disparities by 2010. A nation that plans for voyages to Mars is also capable of making health parity among all U.S. residents a reality. Please join us in our continued pursuit to close the gaps and change the graphs.

Contributions will be used to support SHIRE’s programs and operations. SHIRE uses tested strategies to foster individual and group health and produce measurable health outcomes among underserved communities.
