Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

HBI-DCs mission is to mobilize communities to prevent liver diseases caused by viral hepatitis among Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, African immigrants, and other high-risk groups. Through collaborative partnerships, our organization provides culturally and linguistically appropriate viral hepatitis outreach, education, screening, Hep B vaccination, linkage to care, and patient navigation services for impacted communities. We also provide preventative health education for those who may be HIV co-infected and refer them to partnering organizations for additional screening, counseling, and care services.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Prevention of liver diseases caused by viral hepatitis through collaborative partnerships, culturally and linguistically appropriate viral hepatitis outreach, education, screening, vaccination and linkage to care and patient navigation services for impacted communities.

  • We are excited to introduce the Health Betterment Initiative (HBI), marking a transformation from our previous identity as the Hepatitis B Initiative. We are still HBI and have expanded to solidify our unwavering commitment to enhance overall health. We now offer outreach and education that allows us to serve more people with health access disparities; this includes: Beyond education, we offer free testing for glucose, cholesterol, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV, TB, and syphilis. HBI also provides case management and patient navigation services, ensuring a seamless linkage to care for comprehensive health management. We are a diverse team serving diverse communities with a new revitalized brand. Look for the soft launch that starts with our new website. Translations of our educational materials will start with Spanish and will follow to include Chinese, Mongolian, Vietnamese, and Amharic. Our commitment to better health and well-being includes simplifying access to free health resources. I am pleased to present our accomplishments and impactful stories from 2023 in this annual report. This past year, HBI continued its unwavering commitment to empowering individuals and communities towards optimal health, with a primary focus on liver diseases, infectious diseases, and chronic conditions. Through culturally sensitive education, robust support services, and collaborative partnerships, we have taken significant strides in eliminating health disparities, particularly among vulnerable populations. In 2023, HBI tested 3,505 people for HIV; consisting of 1,263 in DC, 1,858 in Maryland and 384 in Virginia. For HCV, HBI tested 1,327 in DC, 2,569 in Maryland and 682 in Virginia. Thus a total of 4,578 HCV testing in 2023. Also, a total of 2,286 were tested for HBV. Out of this total, 339 were tested in DC, 1,412 in Maryland and 535 in Virginia. On health education, HBI provided health education to 26,000; broken down to 7,536 in DC, 14,590 in Maryland and 3,873 in in Virginia.

    Expenses $966,608

  • 2022 was an exciting and busy year for our team at HBI. The Board of Directors' decision to revise our mission allowed us to expand our programs and serve more individuals in DC, Maryland, and Virginia. Recount our exciting growth on our newly designed website. You will immediately see our program impact, highlights, and upcoming events on the home page.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
