"Social change has never happened overnight and it's time for political policy-makers to stop pretending it can happen in the time it takes for them to run for office." Bethany Hamilton from @National_MLP on the time it takes to create real systemic change. #HJConversation

Can we change it to Structural Determinants of Health? Social Determinants of Health gives it an interpersonal flavor, and implies, to me, that a community owns the disparities. Yet, this sitch has been engineered by white supremacy and capitalism over centuries. 1/2

@SoniaGrahamBuch Dunno about a shot but my wonderful Masters supervisor taught me to always properly celebrate hitting 'submit'. The path from submit to publication is long and tiring, best to celebrate early and recognise your own efforts in getting that far

Our first proposal aims to improve cross-sector responses to #familyviolence. We know that the majority of existing #HealthJustice partnerships are already responding to family violence, using an innovative service delivery model to respond to complex & intersecting needs. (1/3)

As someone who has survived childhood trauma from violence, this stat in the #AWAVAYouthReport landed deeply. When so many young women and non-binary people reach out after violence and see no change, it's clear we need systems change. Within families, communities, institutions.

When health and legal services work together in #HealthJustice partnership, they aim to improve the #health and #wellbeing of those disadvantaged by social and health inequity. (1/3)

[#LeadOnNCDs @WePublicHealth]

We recently published a paper on #wellbeing as an outcome of #HealthJustice partnership, exploring how client wellbeing provides a common and person-centred focus for shared impact across services and sectors. (2/3)

Curious to know more about why we think seeing a lawyer could be good for mental health? Check out this insights paper from our research team https://t.co/oJP5j86Oea (4/4)

The second policy focus we draw attention to in our pre-Budget submission is the connection between #MentalHealth and #LegalNeed. As the @NMHC has recognised, justice is one area where early intervention can prevent mental illness later in life. #HealthJusticeBudget (1/4)
