HERC incorporates the Community First objective of “community involvement” in its program philosophy.
HERC also utilizes the African American Health Initiative’s innovative, Afro-centered approaches to motivate individuals to take a more active role in improving their health, the health of their families and neighborhoods. motivation occurs through opening community dialogue, taking a stand on issues, and pooling strengths, resources, and energy in order to reach those who may be hesitant to focus on their own health.
