宣布2021年RWJF健康公平奖获奖者
认识到个人改变制度和政策，为所有人增加机会。
As our nation emerges from a global pandemic that has illuminated health inequities across our society, the honorees continue to build bridges to connect those who have been disconnected, underserved, and excluded. The honorees include two innovators who are making behavioral health culturally and linguistically responsive and changing mental healthcare in the process; an inspiring leader who is pioneering a holistic, equity-based healthcare model to give clients living in rural areas equal opportunities to achieve good health; and a health systems trailblazer who has introduced community baby showers as a gateway to quality prenatal care and improved birth outcomes.
“The 2021 Health Equity Award winners demonstrate that systems change is possible. These winners are why we believe that, together, we can build a national Culture of Health that ensures everyone has a fair opportunity to thrive,” said Fiona Kanagasingam, vice president, Equity and Culture. “When systems change, structures that privilege some and disadvantage others are dismantled—and people can become active participants in decisions about their health.”
Below are the names and organizations of this year’s winners:
Brenda Flowers-Dalley of Rising Against All Odds—Selected by AIDS United
Dr. Joyce R. Javier of Filipino Family Health Initiative—Selected by the Asian & Pacific Islander Caucus for Public Health
