For more than a decade, U.S. Black Chambers has led the fight on Capitol Hill and in corporate board rooms on behalf of the country’s more than 3 million Black businesses.
The challenges faced by Black business owners often mirror those we see in the communities where they are located, hire from, and committed to serving.
Like Black businesses, medical facilities located in minority communities are facing many never-before-seen challenges as well.
Medical facilities such as Howard University Hospital in Washington, DC, and Prince George’s Hospital Center in Maryland, have served Black communities for decades and are vital partners who provide opportunities for small business growth.
These facilities, which care for thousands of low-income, aging members of the Black community, were already short on medical supplies and personal protective equipment.
