A Lifetime of Healthy Living

Minority Health Coalition of Marion County gives you the tools to experience a better life, starting today.

Support our efforts for health equity.

Our team at Minority Health Coalition of Marion County has a vision of all residents in our community enjoying a healthy life — no matter their race, ethnicity, or income. Unfortunately, that is not a reality. In Marion County, people of color suffer disproportionately from heart disease, cancer, STDS, obesity, and infant mortality than their white neighbors. Every dollar you donate will support a more equitable and healthier future everyone in our community. Thank you for your donations! 

Join Us!

Minority Health Coalition of Marion County is a proud sponsor of a Fireside Conversation moderated by actor Malik Yoba. Join us on Wednesday, Feb. 7, at 4:30-7 p.m. for this National Black HIV Awareness Day event. It all takes place at the Martin University Gathertorium, 2186 N. Sherman Drive., Indianapolis, IN 46218.

Start early

Our youth face greater health challenges because of a lack of exercise, tobacco and vaping use and poor diets. Help them get off to a better start with good health habits.
