The Inner City Respiratory Alliance is designed to reduce the burden of respiratory disease in minority communities and decrease healthcare disparities through a unique partnership and collaboration between Not One More Life, Inc and The CHEST Foundation's One Breath Campaign. Using a coordinated 3 part strategy The Inner City Respiratory Alliance provides tools, education, and networking resources to local health care providers. The Outreach portion of the program assists local providers in setting up free screening, assessment, respiratory education, and follow-up referrals for participants in their communities who exhibit poor respiratory health.
The Inner City Respiratory Alliance is the first partnership to work with local providers, educators and national thought leaders to improve respiratory care in minority communities. Among the resources available to participants are data tracking programs, patient and provider education, Spanish and English screening/assessment forms, and a tool kit to facilitate local outreach events.
