Equity in Action—Launching the PHPP Equity Plan
In our January issue,
we shared how Public Health, Policy & Planning (PHPP) is
developing a division-wide equity plan. Now, we are excited to
announce the launch of our very first Equity Plan! This plan
includes at least two equity objectives for each of our nine PHPP
programs. The first objective is focused on internal equity
needs; such as trainings for staff. The second objective aims to
strengthen equity efforts in programs’ community-facing work;
such as using data to inform health education. Our programs and
their Work Group representatives will be implementing their
objectives through March 2025. During this time, they will also
have opportunities to share progress, challenges and learnings.
Stay tuned for regular updates on our process!
