ACT ON HEALTH EQUITY

ACT on Health Equity is a powerful and growing national network of local public health departments, hospitals, and community-based organizations focused on creating health equity. The coalition, convened by BARHII (Bay Area Regional Health Inequities Initiative), seeks to establish a durable infrastructure sustained by private and public long-term funding that allows communities to forge and sustain well-being for all... First brought together by SPARCC (Strong, Prosperous, and Resilient Communities Challenge), BARHII convenes national partners who are joining forces to advance health equity. ACT on Health Equity is powered by Mile High Connects in the Denver Metro region (a collaborative focused on equitable investment into community solutions), the Center for Transforming Communities (CTC) in Memphis (which focuses on community-building initiatives), and the Atlanta Regional Collaborative for Health (ARCHI) (which uses housing to achieve health equity).
