Abstract:
As the United States grapples with social injustices, greater attention is being placed on the historical lack of equity practices among health and social service organizations that serve marginalized and predominantly racially minoritized communities. We describe strategies health and social service organizations that partner with community-led organizations must take to ensure actionable equitable changes. The opportunity and promise are upon us to resolve health inequities and promote equity-oriented practices, policies, systems, and social-environmental changes.
