HEALTH INITIATIVES PROGRAMS
The Just Us Movement’s Health Initiatives Program aims to address healthcare disparities in communities by providing educational resources, wellness drives, and Narcan training. The program is focused on improving healthcare access and awareness while advocating for health equity. We are committed to addressing the diverse health challenges that disproportionately affect under-resourced communities. Our health initiatives are designed to provide resources, education, and support, with a focus on empowerment, prevention, and community-driven solutions. By meeting individuals and communities where they are, we aim to create lasting change and promote holistic well-being.
We recognize that health and justice are deeply intertwined. Our Health Initiatives focus on reducing disparities in healthcare access, education, and outcomes, particularly in historically marginalized communities. By hosting Narcan training events and public health workshops, we aim to equip individuals with life-saving knowledge and resources to combat the opioid epidemic and other critical health crises. Additionally, our mental health advocacy efforts work to de-stigmatize mental health care and connect individuals with culturally competent providers and support systems. We believe that access to quality healthcare is a fundamental right, and our initiatives are designed to build healthier, more resilient communities.

​The Just Us Movement’s Healthcare Initiatives are transforming the way communities access and understand healthcare. By offering Narcan training, organizing food and wellness drives, and promoting health education through social media campaigns, we are tackling critical issues like the opioid crisis, food insecurity, and healthcare inequities head-on.
