The Council developed the Health Equity Primer to provide the reader with action steps to begin or advance work in organizational health equity.
This primer lays out a foundation of health equity through well-defined terminology, evidence-based theory, and historical context. Through case studies, the primer offers examples of how to begin or advance health equity work.
The goal is to offer a deeper understanding of health equity and the processes by which to achieve it, thereby increasing the reader’s confidence in pursuing health equity within an organization.
