Healthy communities are more than healthy homes: accessible vparks and natural spaces are critical to supporting community health and health equity

[NH Disability and Health Program @nhdhp]

Parks improve #HealthEquity for communities and families! A #CompleteParks system makes sure that everyone can access a great park. Check out the parks policy tools and guides from @ChangeLabWorks #Accessibility #InclusiveHealth https://t.co/opOgS0ifJu

Yes - inaction is expensive. We pay for homelessness and housing poverty thru poor health, lowered educational attainment, lessened lifetime earnings, less taxes paid. Let’s invest in solutions instead.

" I believe there is no technology or intervention that will drive down rising healthcare costs and improve health outcomes more quickly than safe, decent, affordable housing." Medical providers are strong partners in connecting health to housing security https://t.co/f7BrPJDGbA

16% of those experiencing homelessness are black in MultCo even though they make up only 7.2% of pop., according to Point in Time Count. Families are the largest group experiencing homelessness in that population.

Those figures climb when you include people living doubled up.

You’re right @SenKamalaHarris! That’s why we will be joining a tweetstorm at 1 PM ET on Tuesday, August 27th alongside @NAACP_LDF @civilrightsorg @PRRAC_DC & @LawyersComm to discuss why @HUDGov's proposed rule is an attack on civil rights. Fight back with us! #DefendCivilRights

[Childhood Lead Action Project @LeadSafeKidsRI]

Our communities deserve full lead service line replacements (public and private side). Partial replacements can increase lead levels, and programs that only do replacements if the homeowner can pay for the private side leave low-income and renter communities with lead pipes.

"Where a child lives - including the quality and affordability of her family's housing...shapes how healthy that child will be, what kind of schools she can attend, even how long she'll live...the effects of housing discrimination on health can reverberate for decades."
