Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity.
Show detailsChapter 8 summarizes the current state of indicators and interactive tools available to communities. This appendix contains two resources relevant to that discussion. Table B-1 contains publicly accessible indicators related to health equity. This includes measures of demographics, the social determinants of health, and four aspects of the conceptual model for this report: (1) making health equity a shared vision and value, (2) building community capacity to shape outcomes, (3) fostering multisector collaboration, and (4) creating healthier more equitable communities in which members and families live, learn, work, and play. Table B-2 describes interactive tools that communities can use to examine health equity indicators by geographic region as the foundation for community-based solutions and to monitor progress over time.
