DataHaven's new report focuses on health equity, social inequality, and the impacts of COVID-19 in Connecticut communities. Towards Health Equity in Connecticut looks at data across five broad social determinants of health and discusses how the pandemic has magnified the social forces that lead to health disparities, particularly in Black and Latino communities, and how to address them. The report contains an appendix with a new analysis of locally-specific data by race and ethnicity for communities throughout the state. The report was supported by the Connecticut Health Foundation, which also contributed to its review, along with Fairfield County’s Community Foundation, and others.
