 At Kaiser Permanente, we are committed to shaping the future of health. We believe that everyone, regardless of who they are and where they live, should have the ability to be healthy in order to pursue life, liberty and happiness. We are proud to be the founding member of the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. The museum is a wonderful acknowledgement of the importance of the contributions African Americans have made to the success of the United States. Kaiser Permanente is thrilled that the museum is creating a space that reinforces the concept that no one is prevented from achieving their potential because of social position or circumstances. We know that our vision of total health will be achieved when every person has an equal opportunity to reach his or her full potential.
