Public Health

Public health is more than just healthcare—it’s about addressing the social determinants of health that disproportionately affect Black communities. In West Louisville, structural barriers lead to higher rates of chronic illness, mental health challenges, and limited access to quality care. CTCT takes a holistic approach, offering resources, advocacy, and direct services to tackle these issues at the root. We aim to improve the overall well-being of our community, ensuring healthier, longer lives for all.

Sign Our Petition

The time for action is now. The COVID-19 pandemic has only exacerbated food apartheid in our community, creating even greater disparities in access to healthy food. The West End area deserves better, and we demand that local decision-makers take immediate action to address this critical issue. By signing this petition, we can add our voices to the demand for better access to fresh and healthy food options.
