Bridging Silos, Building One Community for Health Equity

Together we are reimagining the dynamics of health and social systems. As a member-driven nonprofit organization, Health Equity Initiative (HEI) is dedicated to build a global community that engages across sectors and disciplines to advance health equity. By bringing together and enlisting the efforts of the public and private sectors, professions and communities that have both a stake and an influence on social determinants of health, HEI advocates for improving conditions and achieving equity in health for all. We focus on championing transformative change, supporting knowledge, engaging communities and leaders, and building capacity across sectors and disciplines to address barriers that prevent people from leading healthy and productive lives.

CORONAVIRUS

Health Equity Initiative is monitoring the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-2019) outbreak, is concerned with the outbreak's impact among vulnerable and disadvantaged populations, and on health and social inequities, and is following guidance by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization. For resources on COVID-19 and Health Equity, click here. Stay safe, everyone, and help others to stay safe by sharing the CDC and WHO resources!




Racism is a Health Equity Issue!

Picture
Racism is rampant as a pervasive form of bias in the United States and many other countries. Institutionalized racism, such as in the form of police brutality, is a significant issue being faced by the nation’s Black communities. However, police brutality is not the only systemic barrier to health and well-being that Black and Brown communities face in the United States. "Racism influences many social determinants of health, such as access to employment and adequate housing, stress levels, and educational attainment, among others."  Read more, see Health Equity Initiative's past content and resources on this topic, and take the pledge to recognize and address racism and other forms of bias in your organization and community! #RacismIsAHealthEquityIssue
