black lives matter
As an organization established by three Black women, we wholeheartedly stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. We acknowledge the history and the hurt Black people have endured for hundreds of years and strongly advocate for change and the dismantling of systemic racism.

Trainings and Programs
What We Do
At CCCS, we advance equity through two main areas of work: trainings that build racial literacy, cultural responsiveness, and organizational change, and programs that address health equity and social determinants of health in our communities. From our Equity, Diversity & Inclusion training series to initiatives like the Achieving Health Equity with Older Persons (AHEOP), the Oral Health Equity Collaborative (OHEC), and the Community Leadership Network (CLN), we partner with organizations and community members to drive systemic change and create inclusive, healthy environments for all.
01
We offer interactive Equity, Diversity & Inclusion trainings that build racial literacy, cultural responsiveness, and organizational change. Our five-part training series and customized workshops help individuals and organizations deepen understanding, practice inclusive leadership, and take action toward dismantling systemic inequities.
02
Our programs focus on advancing health equity and addressing the social determinants of health. Through initiatives like the Achieving Health Equity with Older Persons (AHEOP), the Oral Health Equity Collaborative (OHEC), and the Community Leadership Network (CLN), CCCS partners with community members and institutions to reduce disparities, strengthen connections, and create more inclusive systems.
WHY CCCS?
Because Community is at Our Core
CCCS matters because we equip communities and organizations with the tools, training, and trust needed to advance equity and eliminate barriers to opportunity.
01
We Advance Health Equity
CCCS tackles racial and systemic disparities by framing racism as a public health issue, expanding access to culturally responsive healthcare, and uplifting marginalized voices. Our training, advocacy, and events directly support inclusive care practices statewide.
02
We Build Bridges Across Cultures
CCCS fosters cross-cultural understanding by connecting immigrant, refugee, and BIPOC communities with vital services. Through partnerships, outreach, and trauma-informed support, we help individuals navigate systems while honoring their identities and lived experiences.
03
We Strengthen Organizations
CCCS partners with companies, schools, and institutions to create customized DEI training, cultural competency development, and strategic equity planning. Our proven approach helps organizations meet their inclusion goals while building trust with the communities they serve.
