Our Mission

Mission

Moving From Ideas To Action..

The purpose of Urban Health’s mission is to change the narrative and shatter the status quo by:

  1. Creating Housing Opportunities
  2. Improving the health and well-being of vulnerable populations
  3. Sharing solutions and strategies to reform systems
  4. Reducing inappropriate use of healthcare resources
  5. Advocating, educating, and partnering for a shared action plan

Effort is important but knowing where to direct effort, time, and resources to do the greatest good takes an experienced and compassionate tribe of community leaders.

Urban Health is a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit corporation founded in 2020 by Jayson A. Heyer and governed by a diverse Board of Directors with three committees that oversee the financial, governance and executive management of the organization. One hundred percent of board members make a financial contribution annually. Board members join from all walks of life to enrich the program through their knowledge from lived experience, formal education and/or work experience in various areas of public health, supportive housing, executive management, mental health or social services fields.

About

Urban Health is mission-driven and embraces a whatever it takes approach to service delivery. We lead with a trauma-informed approach and evidence-based solutions that are adaptable and responsive to the changing and complex needs of the population that we serve. We work collaboratively with a diverse set of State, County and local departments, including community and philanthropic organizations, in a system of care that wraps a person in all of the necessary rehabilitative and social supports that they need in order to live in dignity.

Urban Health provides supportive housing and services in the counties of Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside and Orange.  We strive to flatten the harm curve through our collaboration with elected officials, health plans and other health partners, and people with lived experience.
