National Alliance for Hispanic Health (The Alliance) and its supporting organization, the Healthy Americas Foundation (HAF). The Alliance is a nonprofit and nonpartisan advocacy organization dedicated to improving the health and well-being of Hispanics, which Hologic has partnered with since 2014. It is a trusted thought partner of Hologic and is providing critical insights into Hispanic women/Latinas so PHE programs can effectively address barriers to health care that Hispanics regularly experience. HAF launched Mi Hermana — Latina Health Champions to provide training and support so women can better manage and advocate for their own health.

RAD-AID is an international nonprofit organization working to increase and improve radiology in low-resource and medically underserved regions of the world. RAD-AID has been a partner with Hologic in a variety of efforts going back to 2017. With support from PHE, RAD-AID will identify communities in need and implement strategies for screening and diagnostic services to ensure effective pathways for medically disenfranchised women to receive treatment. The company's grants to RAD-AID for this initiative will support innovative care, radiology, public education, nursing and patient navigation at sites selected by RAD-AID as clinical partners to provide critical screening, diagnostic breast imaging and treatment for women who may otherwise go without.
