Overview
Grant Description
Initiative to Address COVID-19 Health Disparities in Chicago's High-Risk and Underserved Communities
We envision a city where all people and all communities have power, are free from oppression, and are strengthened by equitable access to resources, environments, and opportunities that promote optimal health and well-being.
As identified in Healthy Chicago 2025, the Chicago Department of Public Health's overarching goal is to eliminate Chicago's life expectancy gap. This requires both immediate action to address COVID-19 health disparities and sustained strategies to advance racial and health equity.
In order to do so, communities disproportionately affected must have power to develop and implement equity solutions that build on culturally, linguistically, and locally tailored strategies and best practices. These efforts should be supported by a responsive public health infrastructure.
The purpose of this project is to reduce COVID-19 related health disparities and advance health equity by expanding support for Healthy Chicago Equity Zone community partnerships and building public health infrastructure. This includes expanding mitigation and prevention resources and services, improving data collection and reporting, building, leveraging, and expanding infrastructure support, and mobilizing partners and collaborators to address the social determinants of health.
We anticipate reduced COVID-19 health disparities, improved and increased mitigation and prevention resources and services among populations at higher risk, and improved health department capacity and services as a result.
