Health disparities are defined as differences in the quality of health and the level of health care across different populations. Nowhere are these disparities between the haves and have-nots more eminent than in South Los Angeles, the poorest area in Los Angeles County. It is also the community that UMMA has chosen to serve.
For the past 24 years, UMMA has been an institution of health and healing for the South Los Angeles community. We believe that one's life expectancy and quality of living should not be pre-determined by zipcode - that all people deserve dignity, respect and the best healthcare services regardless of their ability to pay.
