MCW Institute for Health and Equity
The Institute for Health & Equity is focused on researching the root causes of health disparities in our communities, and advancing the best practices to foster health equity throughout the world. Partnering with community health collaborators who live and work closest to the populations and with the public at large, we are making an impact on reducing those disparities and advancing the health of communities.
