JUSTtice for the Health Of It Book
JUSTice for the Health of It offers a holistic approach to cultivate a paradigm shift to advance the delivery of healthcare from transactional to transformational. Your skin color should have zero impact on the quality of your health, yet it does. Black and Brown men have a higher chance of dying from a stroke than white men. Why is this?
Health disparities are preventable differences in the burden of disease, injury, violence, healthcare access, treatment outcomes, and the average life expectancy experienced by socially disadvantaged populations. Health justice is not an “Us against Them” problem, but instead it is our problem.
This book is divided into four parts. Through the sharing of personal experiences, storytelling, and a mix of clinical and lay language, each distinct section discusses the given social determinant/factors from a different vantage point. This will enable the reader to acquire a broader understanding of the scope and interdependence of impact on health of each of the discussed factors.
