Overview
Mission
Improve the health and well-being of asian americans and pacific islanders (aapis) in Illinois through advocacy, technical assistance, education, and community-based research.
What it reported doing in 2024
Viral hepatitis the dont let hep b win campaign is a community-driven initiative led by the asian health coalition to increase hepatitis b awareness, education, screening, and linkage to care among asian and african immigrant communities and other populations disproportionately affected by hepatitis b. Working with community-based organizations, health clinics, local health departments, and hepatitis b specialists, the program delivered culturally and linguistically tailored outreach in more than 18 languages to address health disparities and improve access to prevention and care. In fy25, the campaign reached 208,827 Illinois residents across more than 80 zip codes, developed 13 new culturally tailored educational resources, generated over 30,000 social media interactions, and connected 214 individuals to care, with 100% receiving in-language counseling and linkage to appropriate treatment and prevention services.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and expenses are high relative to revenue.
