Centering Equity in Health and Housing Partnerships in Times of Crisis and Beyond

This paper addresses how health centers, other health system providers, and housing partners can center considerations of equity in their shared work to address the needs of people most impacted by structural racism and its impact on health and social determinants of health, including Black people, people of color, and Indigenous people.

For suggestions on specific partnership structures and activities health and housing partners can conduct together, please see Addressing Health Equity Through Health and Housing Partnerships, released by CSH and the National Health Care for the Homeless Council in 2019.
