The Leverage Network Inc

The mission of The Leverage Network, Inc. is to improve board and leadership diversity by increasing the number of seats held by Black healthcare executives. Achieving this mission is of vital importance to the health of our nation. As America becomes more ethnically and culturally diverse it will be essential that health care organizations and systems better reflect the populations they serve in an effort to impact health inequities and disparities that have been persistent for decades. Having the ability to serve people with different values, beliefs and perspectives will not only be a pressing business imperative for health care but will also have a direct impact on the health disparities experienced in this country.
