- The Coronavirus pandemic has been wrecking African American communities. COVID-19 is disproportionately affecting African Americans nationwide. Dying at higher rates, it is becoming clear that the consequences of this virus will continue long after this pandemic has ended. This campaign, The Skin You’re In: Coronavirus & Black America, is intended to provide accurate and relevant information…May 2020COVID-19/Coronavirus
- The National Quality Forum and several collaborators launched the National Quality Task Force in late 2018 to analyze the progress of the modern quality movement today and recommend a path forward. Despite impressive gains, notable shortcomings persist in normalizing consistent, high-value, person-centered care. What is primarily missing is not progress in measurement, but progress in results.…May 2020Health Reform
- In the month since I started at GIH, the world as we know it has drastically changed. Across the globe, nearly 2.5 million people have tested positive for COVID-19 and over 166,000 have died, including roughly 40,000 Americans. In this new reality, we have been asked to stay at home, and to cover our faces in public. Those of us who are fortunate are working from home. Children are adjusting to…April 2020Policy & Law

- One in five Americans lives in a rural area, including about 18 million women of reproductive age, but key indicators, including mortality figures, show that the health of mothers and children in these communities lags behind that of their urban peers and is worsening. Nationwide, child mortality rates have declined over the past decade, but recent research shows that improvement among infants…February 2020Maternal/Child Health
- The number of years spent in formal education is closely related to health outcomes, both amongst individuals and across populations. Equally, health status in early years and later in life affects our ability to participate in education and society. The main factor that determines both health and educational outcomes is socio-economic status. By investing in good quality, accessible education –…February 2020Early Childhood Education
- Pregnancy-related deaths among American women have risen markedly over the past 30 years, despite an overall downward trend worldwide. Many of these deaths are preventable, and the risk remains three to four times higher for black women than white women at all levels of income or education. Maternal mortality—a key measure of health care quality—is typically defined as the death of a woman during…January 2020Maternal Morbidity and Mortality
- Health equity means that everyone has a fair and just opportunity to be physically and mentally healthy. Here at Youth MOVE, we run into the term health equity often when dealing with high-level professionals across several fields. But when it comes to our own Youth MOVE chapter members or youth advocates on the ground, there seems to be a disconnect. Let us tell you once and for all: being a…June 2019Advocacy
- Our work is based on the idea that health and education outcomes are intrinsically linked. We seek to improve these outcomes collectively and across multiple projects. We developed ETR’s Health Equity Framework to help us, and others, think about improving interrelated outcomes from multiple, overlapping perspectives.
