- Disparities in exposure to and density of tobacco advertising are well established; however, it is still unclear how e-cigarette and heated tobacco product (HTP) advertising vary by age, education, sex, gender identity, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status (SES), and/or urban/rural area. Through a scoping review, we sought to identify potential disparities in exposure to e-…January 2021Environment/Context
- This package seeks to strengthen existing leadership development curricula for pre- and in-service health workers and managers through a suite of gender-transformative sessions, which challenge participants to identify and respond to unique considerations for women in leadership. Rather than expecting women to “lean in” to professions and organizations that have largely excluded them from…December 2020Communication, Social/Structural Determinants
- This is Part I of a three-part series on community empowerment as a route to greater health equity. We argue that community ‘empowerment’ approaches in the health field are increasingly restricted to an inward gaze on community psycho-social capacities and proximal neighbourhood conditions, neglecting the outward gaze on political and social transformation for greater equity embedded in…December 2020Community-rooted/Participatory Research
- Everyone has their own way of coping with pain and finding hope in times of distress. When walking through a health crisis, many turn to spirituality for comfort, and many people find their spiritual center in religion. The World Religion Database counts 18 major religious categories around the world. Scholars estimate that about 2,400 religions exist in total. Spirituality and healthcare, many…December 2020Systemic Determinants

In this article, we highlight the need to examine sociocultural influences on food practices as precursors to food policy decisions. Discussion: Sociocultural food practices relate to ideas and materials that give…December 2020Chronic Disease, Social Environment
- The American health system is rife with gaps and inequities. The result is inadequate or no insurance and services for millions of families and unacceptable differences in resources and health conditions related to income, race, and location. Resources are misallocated, the health care infrastructure in many communities is inadequate, and our financial support for health coverage is disjointed…December 2020Social/Structural Determinants
- Climate change directly threatens human health, with substantial impacts on Indigenous peoples, who are uniquely vulnerable as climate-related events affect their practices, lifeways, self-determination, and physical and cultural health. At the same time, Indigenous communities are leading the way in innovative health-related climate change adaptation work, using traditional knowledges and novel…December 2020Community-rooted/Participatory Research, Interventions, Climate Change, Environmental Injustice
- Since its inception in 1996, The California Endowment (TCE) has sought ever greater impact in improving the health and lives of all Californians, with an intense focus on the state’s populations and communities of color experiencing low income. The foundation’s approach has evolved from supporting programmatic efforts to a focus on communities, policy change, and systems reform, to now an…December 2020Policy & Law, Systemic Determinants
- Building Healthy Communities (BHC) has been the signature initiative of The California Endowment (TCE) for the past 10 years. It has combined continuous investment in leadership and organizing capacity-building and advocacy campaigns in 14 historically disinvested communities, with related state-level and regional policy campaigns and coalition building. BHC has remained far from static in its…December 2020Community-rooted/Participatory Research, Interventions
- Climate change has altered global to local weather patterns and increased sea levels, and it will continue to do so. Average temperatures, precipitation amounts, and other variables such as humidity levels are all rising. In addition, weather variability is increasing, causing, for example, a greater number of heat waves, many of which are more intense and last longer, and more floods and…December 2020Climate Change
