Access AIR is a champion for employees with disabilities, both visible and invisible.

Creating a world where health is a right—not a privilege—begins with transforming how we understand and tackle health challenges. At RWJF, we are transforming the health science knowledge system—the system that drives how research is produced, shared, and used—to ensure it truly serves everyone. Our vision is bold: ➕ A system rooted in equity and justice. ➕ A system that breaks down the wide-ranging barriers to health. ➕ A system where knowledge is co-created with communities and diverse ways of knowing—cultural, experiential, and community knowledge—are valued alongside academic and biomedical research. By making research inclusive, transparent, and community-driven, we can ensure that health decisions are informed by evidence that reflects the wisdom, experiences and needs of everyone. Together we can create a health science knowledge system that works for all. Explore our vision.
