Department Description

The Department of Family & Community Medicine is a mid-sized department in the School of Medicine. The mission of FCM is to improve health through excellence and innovation in patient care, education, research, advocacy and community empowerment. FCM is dedicated to building a just and equitable society, recognizing that health and illness are shaped by the context of people's lives.

The Center for Health Equity (CHE) is part of the Department of Family and Community Medicine (FCM). CHE is committed to a world with health equity, in which everyone has a fair and just opportunity to be as healthy as possible. CHE plays a leading role in research looking at upstream factors to improve health equity in the United States. Improving health equity entails removing obstacles to health such as poverty, discrimination, powerlessness, and their consequences. Health equity requires access to good jobs with fair pay; quality education, housing, and health care; and safe environments. To that end, CHE conducts policy-relevant, multidisciplinary studies of social disparities in health and health care in the U.S. and collaborates with other organizations to see research translated into practice to reduce these disparities. CHE is nationally and internationally recognized for its policy-relevant epidemiologic research on health disparities by race and social class.
