What We Are

A “For us, by us” business

Acclinate was built to serve communities of color by members of that community.
“When I became a mom at 19, my son was diagnosed with asthma…he was hospitalized and given albuterol…which unfortunately is less effective in 47% of African Americans.”

A recruitment company

We cultivate an educated, empowered community around important health issues, raising awareness about conditions, breakthrough therapies, and more. We then help sponsors and community health organizations access those communities to create greater representation in their trials and initiatives. Said another way, we empower and gather people together. You choose who to recruit.

A transactional numbers game
