The Racial Health Equity Cohort

Overview

The Network for Public Health Law’s Racial Health Equity Legal and Policy Cohort (RHE Cohort) helps public health departments, community organizations, and advocates use law and policy to address structural racism and advance racial justice. Through tailored legal technical assistance, training, and peer learning, the program strengthens the capacity of organizations to design and implement equity-focused strategies that improve community health. This factsheet shares real examples of how the Cohort supports organizations across the country in tackling structural barriers and advancing racial justice and health equity.
