Objective:

The goal for the HDR@UCR newsletter is to share more information about the community and university members’ research, as well as provide an opportunity for us to begin new conversations and collaborations with feedback from our partners. In each newsletter, you will find a few key components; a message from the directors, COVID-19 updates, partner/affiliate accomplishments, upcoming events, interviews with community leaders in our C-C (Connecting with Community) section, and relevant opportunities for collaboration and funding.

We hope that each newsletter will provide meaningful information and knowledge that will not only inform our communities of the work that is being done at the Center but rather help to make that next step towards health equity and justice.
