The organisation delivers community health programmes, health advocacy, and cultural competency training, with a focus on addressing health disparities among underserved groups.

The forum conducts health equity research and policy consultation, and runs initiatives including youth engagement projects, school readiness programmes, and Covid awareness campaigns.
