- In a finding that challenges the notion that immigrants are freeloaders in the American health care system, a new study shows they are paying a lot more through health care premiums and related taxes than they actually use in care. In fact, the amount that immigrants pay in makes up for some of the amount of health care that non-immigrants use in excess of what they pay. “Some politicians and…November 2022Services & Programs
- There’s a lot to fix about America’s broken systems. One of the most important is healthcare. In the ongoing fight for racial justice, we must call on those in power to center the fight for equity around health. For too long, our country’s racist infrastructure has overburdened the physical and mental health of our communities. Without access to quality healthcare, people of color will not be…April 2022Advocacy, Health Reform
- The COVID-19 pandemic shined a light on the importance of universal access to affordable, high quality child care. For many racial and ethnic minorities in the United States, however, that access has been a long-standing issue. A 2017 CLASP report noted the structural racism that creates and perpetuates inequities and the fragmented U.S. child care system for young children ages birth to 5 years…August 2021Early Adulthood, Services & Programs

We engaged with existing Black and Latinx community leaders to co-develop the program, converting a mobile vascular screening unit into a testing site and resource center for patients at risk. In the first three months, 2,…October 2020COVID-19/Coronavirus, Community-rooted/Participatory Research
- The National Quality Forum and several collaborators launched the National Quality Task Force in late 2018 to analyze the progress of the modern quality movement today and recommend a path forward. Despite impressive gains, notable shortcomings persist in normalizing consistent, high-value, person-centered care. What is primarily missing is not progress in measurement, but progress in results.…May 2020Health Reform
- The relationship between housing and health is more than just the four walls that shelter an individual or family each night. More broadly, the link between health and housing is a result of influences from both the individual home unit and a variety of structural and societal factors within a neighborhood. These elements have the potential to provide safety, recreation, access to transportation…May 2020Housing Discrimination, Social/Structural Determinants, Environment/Context, Systemic Determinants, Healthy Housing, Racism

- Engaging and supporting youth as allies to advance community health, equity, and safety is one approach that funders and practitioners often overlook. They may discount the value of youth as full community members, doubt their readiness to contribute to productive discourse and decision making, or find it simpler to fall back on established power dynamics rather than invest in the cultivation and…July 2019Policy and Practice
- Health equity means that everyone has a fair and just opportunity to be physically and mentally healthy. Here at Youth MOVE, we run into the term health equity often when dealing with high-level professionals across several fields. But when it comes to our own Youth MOVE chapter members or youth advocates on the ground, there seems to be a disconnect. Let us tell you once and for all: being a…June 2019Advocacy
