Why Solve These Problems?

Health Impact Assessment

Democracy

Equity

Sustainable Development

Ethical Use of Evidence

Comprehensive Approach to Health

1) To improve people’s health and lives

1) To reduce health inequities

12

Solutions

Health in All Policies

13

Health in All Policies is the concept of incorporating

health considerations into the policies and

programs of sectors that are the root causes of

health.

14

Health Impact Assessment

How does a proposed

project, plan, policy affect

Determinants of Health

and lead to

health outcomes?What recommendations can be

made to improve health outcomes?

A statewide coalition in CA developed 13 health and equity

metrics for inclusion in Regional Transportation Plans

Topics included: safety; access to goods,

jobs, services; transportation; future

growth; economy; pollution; equity

Sample metrics:

Daily amount (in minutes) of work-trip and non-

work trip related physical activity

Estimate premature mortality attributed to

traffic related ambient PM 2.5 and estimate

asthma incidence and exacerbation

attributed to traffic-related NO2

15

Result: Metropolitan Planning Organizations are now

incorporating some of these metrics in their plans

Example 2: Foreclosures

16

Alameda County Public Health and Causa Justa::Just Cause

Primary data collection, stories from community members

Wins:

Local and state legislation that

stopped water shutoffs when

landlords don’t pay bills

Local legislation that mandates

banks maintain foreclosed

properties

Built community capacity and

trust and transparency in

government

Example 3: Public Transit

17

Example 4: Minimum Wage

Income is a strong and consistent predictor of health

Mechanisms: ability to meet material needs, access to health

care, quality of neighborhoods in which people can afford to

live, child health and development, chronic stress, interpersonal

relationships

Outcomes: premature mortality, chronic disease, hunger, mental

health, ...

MN Health Commissioner Tweet: “Governor

Dayton signing the minimum wage bill into

law. A great public health achievement.”

Analyses completed in MN (2014), CA (2014), SF

(1999); public health became advocate and new

voice for raising the minimum wage

Many states and cities recently passed or are

considering minimum wage increases

19

Example 5: Incarceration

1 in 3 blacks, 1 in 6 Latinos, and 1 in 17 whites will be

incarcerated in their lifetime

“Tough on crime” policies have not improved public safety;

recidivism rates are over 50%

Those incarcerated are 6X more likely to be

mentally ill; 20X more likely to have a substance

abuse problem

Mental health and substance abuse programs

reduce recidivism

Criminal justice reforms being investigated across

the country

Public health lens has been used in WI (2012)

and CA (2014) to help win reforms

20

Example 6: Education Funding

Promising Practices

School-based mental health

programs

School-based health centers

Nutrition programs

Physical activity programs

Asthma programs

Dental care services

Parent engagement

Safe and supportive learning

environments (e.g.,

Restorative Justice)

Teacher training on social-

emotional needs

Additional HiAP/HIA Project Topics

21

Health Determinant Policy Issue

Education Discipline; Funding; Integration; Siting

Jobs Wages; Pay equity; Paid sick days; Wage

theft; Hiring practices

Housing Mixed-use housing development; Public

housing redevelopment

Transportation Freeway expansion; Public transit funding

Land use Planning and zoning; Waste facility siting;

Transit oriented development

Incarceration Diversion; Sentencing reform; Ban the box

Agriculture SNAP; Farm to school; Ag plans

Energy Natural resource extraction; Wind farms;

Cap and trade

Outcomes

Local and statewide wins to improve neighborhood, housing,

transit, criminal justice, education, and employment conditions

and policies for low-income communities and communities of

color

Increased participation in decision-making by community

residents and empowerment of community organizations

Explicit consideration of health inequities in decision making

Changes in how policies are framed and debated

Increased media coverage of the health and equity implications

of decisions

New collaborations between health professionals, public

agencies, community organizations, and other stakeholders

22

23

Elements of Success

Moving upstream: focusing on social inequities (causes)

rather than the health disparities (outcomes)

Process: building relationships and collaborations across

agencies, with communities, and with other

stakeholders

Community engagement: strengthening the ability of

communities facing inequities to change the conditions

that lead to poor health outcomes

Solution oriented: creating viable alternatives and

recommendations that provide an achievable vision

Changing worldview: use the work to raise awareness of

structural causes of health outcomes

24

So What Can Health Professionals Do? (I)

Research

Communications

Capacity Building

Relationship Building

Funding

…to help communities facing poor health

outcomes build their power to make change

25

What can Health Professionals Do? (II)

Who What

Public health

professionals

Provide data and research connecting public policy

and health

Non-profit

hospitals

Analyze SDOH in CHNA; use community benefit

spending on SDOH

Medical

professionals

Support community organizers and policy advocates

fighting for policy change by using their individual

and collective voices

Public health

nurses

Build social cohesion and strengthen social networks

when providing services in the community

All of us Build capacity of low income people and people of

color to advocate on their own behalf for policies

that improve living conditions

All of us Use the power of our positions to build relationships

between those facing the greatest inequities and

those who can change policy

26

Community Organization

An organization that:

• Helps a community identify common problems,

mobilize resources, and develop and implement

strategies to reach their collective goals;

• Brings people who identify as being part of the

community together to solve problems that they

themselves identify;

• Works to develop civic agency among

individuals and communities to take control over

their lives and environments.

Why Congregation BasedCommunity Organizing?

“The center of our values in Congregation-

Based Organizing is belief that our values

SHOULD determine the policies and practices

of our government and our society.

We know with intentional intervention that

policies and practices will change when

people of FAITH put their VALUES into

ACTION”

“A true revolution of values will soon cause us to question the fairness and justice of many of our past and present policies. ... A true revolution of values will soon look uneasily on the glaring contrast of poverty and wealth”
