Iniciativa Comunitaria de Investigación, Inc. (ICI) is a community based organization that promotes health, education and prevention services to special populations that have been marginalized by traditional health systems. Founded in 1990 and stablished in 1992 by Dr. José A.

We are a leading organization working to accompany the community in its development and transformation.
We advocate for the recognition of the fundamental rights of the community and its individuals. We seek that those rights are respected. We propose and promote a sensitive and inclusive public policy committed to achieve quality of life, healthy and harmonious coexistence, especially in humans suffering social exclusion.
