Signature program of AcruxKC to provide short-term medical assistance for those in need in the KC metropolitan area

关于我们

AccessKC began in July 2005 as Kansas City’s Medicine Cabinet as a program of AcruxKC (then BTLLF) established to provide short-term medical assistance for those in need in the KC metropolitan area. Unfortunately, very few of the area’s numerous social service agencies have funding available for short-term healthcare emergencies. That’s why AccessKC is shining a spotlight on this area, working with established emergency assistance agencies that already provide food, rent, utility assistance, and more. The goal is to reduce barriers to care and support people in their quest for improved health, quality of life, and self-sufficiency.

    This Black History Month, we celebrate Dr. Samuel U. Rodgers, a visionary who transformed health care in Kansas City. He believed that quality care is not a privilege, but a right, dedicating his life to ensuring that underserved communities had access to medical services. In 1968, he founded what is now the Samuel U. Rodgers Health Center, creating a place where families could receive compassionate, high-quality health care regardless of their circumstances. His work helped break racial barriers in medicine, paving the way for a more equitable health system. ?? Dr. Rodgers’ legacy is a reminder that when health care is accessible, communities thrive. As we continue our own mission of expanding access to care, we are inspired by his unwavering commitment to health equity. ?? Learn more about his incredible impact:?https://lnkd.in/g3CXRf4u #BlackHistoryMonth #HealthcareForAll #HealthEquity #SamuelURodgers #CommunityCare

    Black History Month is a time to honor Black Americans' contributions, achievements, and resilience, especially those who have shaped Kansas City and its surrounding communities. At AccessKC, we recognize that health equity is a crucial part of this history and ongoing fight for justice. In a given year, over 1/3 of the individuals we served identified as Black/African American, reflecting the continued need to break down healthcare barriers and expand access to care. Even today, many Black Americans face greater challenges in accessing quality healthcare, leading to higher rates of chronic illness and gaps in medical treatment. We remain committed to ensuring healthcare is accessible to all, regardless of background or income. ???Learn about Kansas Citians who broke barriers and helped shape our region’s history:https://lnkd.in/gwn2uQ6D #BlackHistoryMonth #AccessKC #HealthEquity #KansasCity #BHM2025
