"Health is a state of complete mental, physical and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity"

- World Health Organization

DIVERITY, equity and inclusion

At Bitter & Balance, as practitioners and participants of our community we are firmly committed to both learning and unlearning, working at anti-racism both in our practice and outside of it. We understand that both historical and present-day systems of oppression are present in health and can be deadly for people, especially marginalized communities.

access to all essential healthcare

At Bitter & Balance we know that healthcare is an essential human right and needs to be available to all people. We believe that access to care includes safe and legal healthcare for BIPOC, women and birthing persons, reproductive healthcare, trans-care, undocumented folks, persons without homes, those incarcerated and other communities having difficultly accessing their adequate healthcare needs.
