Health Equity and Social Justice

The goal of NACCHO's Health Equity and Social Justice initiatives is to advance the capacity of local health departments (LHDs) to tackle the root causes of health inequities through public health practice and their organizational structure. Based on a social justice framework these modules seek to further define health inequity and describe the differences between a conventional and social justice perspective on public health practice.

Module 1: What is health inequity?
Module 2: Health equity, data collection, and analysis
Module 3: Using MAPP to Achieve Health Equity
