Abstract
This report reviews old and new evidence about health, health equity and housing, to make the case for “health equity in housing” as a top goal of the movement to create a Culture of Health in America.
Description
This series of reports explores the role of law in housing equity and exploring innovative uses of law to improve health equity through housing. The six reports, Funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Policies for Action Program, are based on extensive literature reviews and a robust process of semi-structured interviews with thought leaders and people who are taking action in housing policy and practice. This series focuses on how laws and legal practices related to housing have influenced the availability of quality, affordable housing in socially and racially inclusive neighborhoods—and how the policies that work can be coordinated and scaled up for maximum national impact. The reports were also discussed in a three-part webinar series sponsored by the Center, the National Center for Healthy Housing, and the National Low-Income Housing Coalition in 2020.
