Post-Election Statement

[link removed]

To Our Community,

A week out from the presidential election, we understand everyone may still be processing a mix of emotions. Knowing how the candidates campaigned on health issues and policies, many advocates for racial health equity are justifiably worried about what lies ahead for our most under-resourced and marginalized communities.

We have all been fighting for health equity long before this election. We know that eradicating structural racism (and every other -ism) is the work of generations. We are, and always have been, focused on the long game, while meeting immediate resource needs. For us, the election outcome has only strengthened our resolve to advance our mission, vision and values, in support of the right to health, well-being and dignity - for every person, in every community.

In the coming years, our commitments will remain the same. We will continue to advocate, in partnership, for the policies, funding, workforces and structures for our communities to be healthy. We will continue to strengthen and build our big tent for anyone who wants to work together on near-term challenges and fight for greater systemic change.

And we need you in it. We want to know how you’re doing ([link removed]) , and what you might need. We’ll continue to share resources (see some below) and explore even more ways to stay connected in our collective work.

Thank you for standing in solidarity and moving forward with us in an unwavering commitment to our communities.
