Data-Driven and Human-Centered: A Multi-Pronged Approach to Address Health Equity

As a community health center, HealthPoint is actively re-centering around its roots in the civil rights movement, building stronger systems to acknowledge and reduce health disparities that adversely impact its communities. It has developed new governance structures, including a Health Equity Advisory Council and Diversity Equity and Inclusion Workforce Council.  It has launched a Health Equity Learning Collaborative, invested in stratified data to bring transparency to disparities in populations for key health outcomes, and supported opportunities for staff and community to discuss how the social construct of race has impacted their work and their health.
