Regional Asthma Management & Prevention (RAMP)

Established in 1996 and based in Oakland, California, Regional Asthma Management & Prevention (RAMP) is a project of the Public Health Institute. We envision healthy communities where asthma is reduced and well-managed, and the social and environmental inequities that contribute to the unequal burden of the disease for low-income communities and communities of color are eliminated. Our mission is to reduce the burden of asthma with a focus on health equity. Emphasizing both prevention and management, we build capacity, create linkages, and mobilize networks to advocate for policy and systems changes targeting the root causes of asthma disparities.
