Peer Review Study
The authors of this report note that there is a deficit in resources to effectively support public health’s foundational capabilities, and thus the health of our communities. The authors outlined a list of investments needed to ensure all health departments or regional partnerships have these capacities met. The authors recommend creating a Public Health Infrastructure Fund to ensure all departments invest in health tracking/assessment, hazard preparedness, communications, policy development, community partnership development, organizational competencies, and performance management.

This article provides an overview of the evidence linking the primary domains of racism — structural racism, cultural racism, and individual-level discrimination — to mental and physical health outcomes. For each mechanism, the authors describe key findings and identify priorities for future research. The authors also discuss evidence for interventions to reduce racism and describe research needed to advance knowledge in this area.
