Advancing Equity

Advancing Equity

Inequity is at the root of most consequential disparities in health, wealth, and opportunity. For this reason, equity tops the list of IPS Core Values. However, advancing equity in communities is challenging. It requires a widespread embrace of collective responsibility, a commitment to diversity and inclusion, and an unsiloing of resources. IPS has developed tools and processes to assist organizations and groups that want to integrate equity into population-level programs aimed at reducing health disparities. We provide a framework for understanding problems, identifying evidence-informed solutions, integrating disaffected populations, and advocating for policy and systems change that breaks down systemic barriers to health and wellbeing.
