About REACH | REACH | CDC Skip directly to site content Racial and Ethnic Approaches to Community Health (REACH) is a CDC-funded program to reduce racial and ethnic health disparities or gaps. REACH program recipients plan and carry out local, culturally appropriate programs. REACH programs use proven strategies to help improve health, prevent chronic diseases, and reduce health disparities.
Why it is important to end health gaps All people should be able to reach their full health potential. However, health gaps exist among racial and ethnic minority groups. These groups may have higher rates of disease, early death, and health care costs, and lower quality of life.
For example, from 2017 to March 2020, the rate of obesity was higher among Black (50%) and Hispanic (46%) adults than White adults (41%). Also, diabetes prevalence was: 21% among Hispanic adults. REACH aims to improve health, prevent chronic diseases, and reduce health disparities among racial and ethnic populations with the highest risk, or burden, of chronic disease.
Such diseases include high blood pressure, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. The program's goal is to make healthy eating and active living more accessible and affordable to priority populations.
REACH addresses health disparities using culturally appropriate programs designed for different racial and ethnic minority groups: African American or Black, Hispanic, Latino, Asian American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, American Indian, and Alaska Native. Since 1999, REACH recipients have used community-based, participatory approaches to identify, develop, and share effective strategies for addressing health disparities.
See: Reducing racial and ethnic health gaps is complex. REACH recipients work with their partners to help remove barriers to health linked to race or ethnicity, education, income, location, or other social factors.
