Mission
The mission of CaHPSA is to promote health equity across California by cultivating leadership and advocacy skills among all interested undergraduate students through education and community outreach that support comprehensive, high-quality, accessible, guaranteed, and affordable health care for all regardless of immigration status, gender, disability, age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, pregnancy, religion, and other identities. CaHPSA believes that health care is a human right and supports a more equitable and efficient healthcare system that prioritizes health over profit. CaHPSA hopes to address inadequate healthcare coverage as well as the increased cost of healthcare that has led to health inequality affecting low-income individuals who are primarily a part of communities of color.
