Health Equity & Community Health

At Mass General Brigham, Health Equity & Community Health aims to make measurable, impactful, and sustainable improvements in clinical equity for our patients, along with better health outcomes for the communities we serve.

We are focused on the health conditions that are the greatest contributors to premature mortality and reduced life expectancy in these communities — cardiometabolic disease (including hypertension and diabetes), substance use disorder, cancer, and maternal-child health.

We are committed to addressing the root causes of health disparities by building and strengthening our community-based partnerships to make the greatest impact on issues such as food insecurity, housing instability, limited economic mobility and educational opportunities, and barriers to accessing care.
