Other Health Resources
Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
Being healthy means more than not being sick. Complex social factors and deeply ingrained systemic barriers are such powerful influences that people in some communities will die 20 years earlier than others living just a few miles away. The risks begin at birth and continue across the lifespan because stable housing, good schools, steady jobs, and accessible healthcare are inequitably distributed. Building a Culture of Health means working together to dismantle structural racism and other barriers so that everyone has the chance to live the healthiest life possible.
