What does poverty, discrimination, racism, unemployment, housing, education and safe neighborhoods have to do with your health? How come your zip code can help determine if you have a chance of living a healthy life? Why don't all people have the same opportunity to be healthy? Why is there disparity in health equity? The Robert Woods Johnson Foundation defines health equity as "everyone has a fair and just opportunity to be healthy". We explore the barriers to health equity with Natalie S. Burke, President and CEO of CommonHealth Action, a national public health organization that creates solutions to health and policy challenges.
