Mission

Repair engages in research, education, and community-level advocacy regarding health challenges, health disparities and disabilities that result from social problems. We address illness, injuries, and mental and physical disabilities that are the direct consequence of systemic violence, exploitation and/or inequity. Damage to the health of vulnerable populations generates immediate and ongoing suffering, and further escalates communal vulnerability. We aim to link research, education and advocacy, in order to build well-informed interventions that challenge the problems we are concerned with, often in partnership with other organizations.
