Coco Cares

This program is an effort to close the racial health gap that has affected Black people's health outcomes and access to high-quality healthcare. The "racial health gap" refers to differences in healthcare access, healthcare quality, and health outcomes for households across races. According to a 2022 report by the National Consumer Law Center, "[Black] people often put their health at greater danger to avoid medical debt or to pay off current medical debt." Please note, the Coco Cares Program is open to all Santa Clarita Valley Residents.

The goal of the program is: 

• Increase in Financial Education

• Documented Budgeting Plan to Manage Financial Emergencies

• Health Insurance Options Education

• More preventative screenings
