The ReACH Center is dedicated to addressing structural inequities and systemic racism through research and community engagement.

Welcome

The Center for Research to Advance Community Health (ReACH) is multidisciplinary collaboration of researchers, community members, and health workers who work to improve health outcomes and disparities through innovation, research, and authentic community partnership.

We support a diverse array of research initiatives, spanning disciplines, populations, and institutions. Our research is unified by a shared goal to improve the health of underserved communities through partnership and research-driven practice. View our current research projects

ReACH houses the Service Center for UT Health San Antonio Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes (ECHO), a model for telementorship and guided practices that builds local capacity for delivering best-practice care. As the ECHO Service Center, we offer technical assistance and customized support to groups planning their own ECHO. Learn more about ECHO
