We believe in a San Francisco where Black communities have a fair and just opportunity to reach their best health and wellbeing, have spaces to care for their minds, bodies, and spirits, and can feel safe and supported.

While only making up 5 percent of the city’s population, the Black community in San Francisco faces some of the highest health disparities that continue to be exacerbated by systemic inequities. Umoja Health Access Point aims to bridge this gap by centering the impact of structural racism and addressing the impact that social issues – lack of housing, access to family sustaining wage jobs, and equitable education – continue to have on the health and wellness of Black communities. By offering a variety of services that focus on addressing underlying inequities and prevention, we strive to create a healthier, more resilient community.

Umoja HAP provides comprehensive behavioral and sexual health services to San Francisco’s Black communities, along with access to fresh food, testing, counseling, and support groups. Additionally, given the high rates of overdose deaths and ongoing housing affordability issues within our community, our services address the systemic care needs and what’s needed to build an ecosystem of care for impacted individuals and their families.
