health Disparities
How are we ensuring that we are building pilina, connections and understanding rather than divisiveness when examining why racial disparities exist concerning this novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19? How can being informed about what is driving these disparities, help us to see how we as a state need to work to solve the root of the problems--the socio-economic, and health disparities that have long existed and are not being addressed? The information collected here will examine how these problems have long existed within our marginalized and oppressed communities here in Hawai`i. This pandemic, is bringing to the forefront just one of the ways that these inequities impact the communities whose health and wellness needs are not being addressed. Finally, how can we, take an aloha-filled approach in supporting these communities?
