This week’s Leadership newsletter looks at how addressing issues of access—to social services, to healthcare, to technology—is indispensable for carrying out any justice-oriented mission. Our first article looks at why community-based approaches that are directly informed by and accessible to the people they serve are necessary for improving stark, systemic health injustice across the U.S. Next, two researchers share their findings on how pandemic-driven reliance on technology has produced divergent results when it comes to access. Our next piece discusses an ongoing coalition to promote equitable access to healthcare through technology that seeks to overcome economic, health, and place-based impediments. Our last feature is a webinar where panelists offer insights on how we can retool access to healthcare by addressing racial and economic injustice—key drivers of poor U.S. health outcomes—and promote health for all.
