Team Profile Summary

The Baltimore Place Matters Team is committed to a collaborative approach toward Health Equity that recognizes and compliments the health disparities work well underway in Maryland. Through work with policymakers, public and private organizations, and local citizens, we seek to engender a new paradigm of thought which promotes the reduction of health disparities, and promotes HEALTH EQUITY, using the framework of the Social Determinants of Health. With a focus on education, mobilization and advocacy, of the public and key leadership, we seek to utilize data and national best practices to inform the development of public policies which have a measurable impact on both reducing health disparities and promoting HEALTH EQUITY effects for children, youth and families in Baltimore.
