Black Men's Health Project

The Black Men's Health Project ("The Project") is a comprehensive approach to addressing the health prospects for Black Men and the disparities relative to the rate at which Black Men suffer from chronic diseases like hypertension, diabetes, cancers and numerous other health challenges. The mortality rate for Black Men from these diseases contributes to Black Men having the shortest life expectancy of any demographic group in the United States.

The Project, spearheaded by the Omega Foundation of Hartford (legacyfoundationhartford.org) and Hartford Hospital, involves periodic discussions, health fairs and health screenings for Black Men under the theme of "taking charge of your health" and encouraging participants to be informed and be responsible. The health fairs and symposiums which include medical experts of the Hospital are held at Hartford Hospital, community centers, churches and other locations throughout the year.


Southside Institutions Neighborhood Association

An affiliation of Hartford Hospital, Connecticut Children’s and Trinity College, is committed to improving the quality of life for residents of the area surrounding these institutions. One of the projects currently underway is construction of 10 new one-family homes available to first time homebuyers. In addition to avoiding blight, improving the physical appearance of the neighborhood and reducing crime, this initiative provides construction jobs and increases the property tax base for the City of Hartford.


Hartford Hospital's Center for Education, Simulation and Innovation (CESI)

Provides the highest-level training to clinicians and healthcare professionals on the newest lifesaving technology. The simulators allow healthcare professionals to become proficient in new technology such as laparoscopic and robotic surgery by allowing them to practice procedures repeatedly before they actually work on patients. This simulation training has had an impact beyond Connecticut in the more than 2,000 physicians, advance practice clinicians, and EMTs for hospital helicopters who have been trained in just a year. CESI also prepared military paramedics before they deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq.
