There is a large and growing number of resources that may be useful to individuals and organizations concerned with health equity. The following list is drawn from the references and resources we used in the development of the DE Health Equity Guide, but it is not comprehensive. Please contact us to share additional resources that you believe should be added to this list.
“We really have to re-explore what are the limits of our advocacy…what are we willing to take a stand on and say it is good for the public health, like prenatal care and WIC [Women, Infants, Children]… Can we expand that kind of health advocacy to include housing and poverty?” (Knight, 2014, p. 192).
