Objectives

  • 1. Define social determinants of health, health disparities, health

inequities, and equity.

  • 2. Identify key factors that contribute to SDOH and equity generally

and in Maine.

  • 3. Describe how specific SDOH-related strategies can impact resilience

among children and families.

Many factors contribute to our health – our genes, our sense

  • f place, our family history, our values, and so much more.

Seeking to understand the power and influence these factors exert is essential to informing our actions to build resilient children, adults, and communities.

Social Determinants of Health (SDOH)

Conditions in the places where people live, learn, work, and play affect a wide range of health risks and outcomes. These conditions are known as social determinants of health.

Healthy People 2020 developed a “place-based” organizing framework, reflecting five key areas of SDOH:

  • Economic Stability
  • Education
  • Social and Community Context
  • Health and Health Care
  • Neighborhood and Built Environment

Health Disparities

Differences in the incidence and prevalence

  • f health conditions and health status

between groups, based on:

  • Race/ethnicity
  • Socioeconomic status
  • Sexual orientation
  • Gender
  • Disability status
  • Geographic location
  • Combination of these

Examples of Health Disparities

Diabetes As of 2007, Native Americans and Alaska Natives (17%), African Americans (12%), and Hispanics/Latinos (10%) were all significantly more likely to have been diagnosed with diabetes compared to their White counterparts (7%).1 Heart Disease In 2000, rates of death from diseases of the heart were 29 percent higher among African American adults than among white adults, and death rates from stroke were 40 percent higher.2 Infant Mortality In 2002, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) deaths among American Indian and Alaska Natives was 2.3 times the rate for non-Hispanic white mothers.3

SLIDE 10

Health Inequities

▪ Systematic and unjust distribution of social,

economic, and environmental conditions needed for health

  • Unequal access to quality education, healthcare, housing,

transportation, other resources (e.g., grocery stores, car seats)

  • Unequal employment opportunities and pay/income
  • Discrimination based upon social status/other factors

Reference: Whitehead M. et al

slide-11
SLIDE 11

Examples of Health Inequities

Education Infants born to African American mothers with

  • nly a high school education were 2.2 times

more likely to die in the first year of life compared to their White counterparts. Income Low socioeconomic status is associated with an increased risk for many diseases, including CVH, arthritis, diabetes, chronic respiratory diseases, cervical cancer and frequent mental distress.1 Access to resources Lower income and racial/ethnic minority communities are less likely to have access to grocery stores with a wide variety of fruits and vegetables.2,3

Equality vs Equity

▪ Equality – everyone gets the same thing, equal taxes, equal rights, etc. ▪ Equity – more “real”; focus on outcomes and root structures, and the things that contribute to those outcomes and structures ▪ Key question: how is POWER operating? ▪ What are the positive outcomes we want to see?

▪ “The Curb Cut Effect” by Angela Glover Blackwell in Stanford Social Innovation Review, Winter 2017 (see resource list)

Health Equity

◼ The opportunity for everyone to attain his or

her full health potential

◼ No one is disadvantaged from achieving this

potential because of his or her social position

  • r other socially determined circumstance

◼ Distinct from health equality

Maine: the most rural state east of the Mississippi*

  • “Turn left at the red sawmill sign”
  • Social isolation, even in urban

areas is widespread

  • Culture built on proud Yankee

independence

  • Weather extremes
  • Transportation depends on cars
  • Economic necessity means multiple

jobs with few or no benefits

  • Distrust of government is growing

Taking Action - First Steps

  • What social, economic, or environmental conditions affect your whole

community (e.g., air pollution, high concentration of fast food restaurants, lack of jobs that provide a living wage)?

  • What conditions differentially affect subgroups in your community?
  • Why are these conditions experienced differentially for subgroups in your

community?

  • How are resources (e.g., food, housing, local businesses, transportation, health

care services) distributed within your community?

  • How does this compare to surrounding communities/regions?
  • What are the relationships among social determinants, cultural and other

factors?

Six Ways to Talk about Social Determinants of Health

  • Health starts – long before illness – in our homes, schools, and

jobs.

  • All Americans should have the opportunity to make the choices

that allow them to live a long, healthy life, regardless of their income, education or ethnic background.

  • Your neighborhood or job shouldn’t be hazardous to your

health.

  • Your opportunity for health starts long before you need

medical care.

  • The opportunity for health begins in our families,

neighborhoods, schools, and jobs.
