Talk to Our Team

As we enter Black History Month, Acclinate proudly reaffirms its commitment to health equity—a mission that is deeply embedded in understanding and addressing the disparities prevalent in our communities.

At Acclinate, our pursuit of health equity is not just a goal—it's what we tirelessly work towards making a standard. Central to this mission is our NOWINCLUDED platform, a beacon of health education and engagement meticulously crafted by and for this vibrant community with over 100,000 members. By combining predictive analytics technology with community engagement, we actively address the disparities that have plagued minority communities for too long. 

"Health equity is not just a catchphrase for us. It's the driving force behind every initiative,” said Tiffany Whitlow, chief development officer and co-founder at Acclinate. “We believe in a future where health outcomes are not predetermined by ethnicity but rather shaped by inclusive and representative research."

The statistics paint a stark picture, underscoring the urgent need for change. Below are just a few of the ongoing health disparities affecting Black Americans:

As we celebrate Black History Month, we invite you to join us in this transformative journey. Acclinate actively engages with communities, fostering open conversations, breaking down barriers, and amplifying diverse voices in the healthcare narrative. By empowering individuals with knowledge and encouraging participation in clinical trials, we aim to reshape the future of healthcare.

"Our commitment to health equity is unwavering,” said Del Smith, CEO and co-founder at Acclinate. “We envision a healthcare landscape where everyone, regardless of their background, has access to the same opportunities and receives the care they deserve." 

Black History Month is not just a time to reflect, it's an opportunity to act. Join Acclinate and the NOWINCLUDED community in championing health equity. Whether it's staying informed, advocating for inclusive research, or participating in clinical trials, every action counts.

Together, let's build a future where health disparities are a distant memory—a legacy worthy of Black History Month.‍
