Our mission is to marshal the considerable resources at Purdue to ensure all people have fair access to resources and opportunities that will allow them to make healthy choices.

Our vision is to enable Purdue to become a collaborative, transformational, and interdisciplinary leader in Health Equity by leveraging its unique assets to address health disparities and improve health outcomes across Indiana and beyond.
