Toolkit
The Health Equity Assessment Toolkit (HEAT) is a software application that facilitates the assessment of within-country health inequalities. It was developed for use on desktop or laptop computers and mobile devices. Explore inequality, which enables users to explore the situation in one setting of interest (e.g. a country, province or district) to determine the latest situation of inequality and the change in inequalities over time. Compare inequality, which enables users to benchmark, i.e. compare the situation in one setting of interest with the situation in other settings.

This is the summary page containing the full guide to HEDA: Conducting a Health Equity Data Analysis: A Guide for Local Health Departments, Version 2. HEDA provides information on how to think about, collect, and analyze local data related to health equity. It provides a starting point for understanding how to document health inequities. This guide provides a detailed process for analyzing health inequities in a local jurisdiction. The guide describes how to use data to identify health differences between population groups, instead of only examining the population as a whole. The process includes steps to identify and examine the causes of population differences in health, and emphasizes the importance of working in partnership at every step with communities experiencing inequities.

Data Collection Tool
This dashboard provides an initial look into how to quantify the level of vulnerability within an area (as defined by ZIP code, ZCTA). Interacting with the data at this level allows local decision makers to understand the vulnerability of their populations, as well as the vulnerability of neighboring regions.
