We are focused on addressing the root causes of health inequities that are embedded in systems of health care, housing, transportation, employment, education, neighborhoods, law, and policy. Our strength is our focus on community engagement and advocacy, research, and education. Our network includes over 200 collaborators dedicated to advancing health equity.
