Funding Opportunity Title: Framework to Address Health Disparities Through Collaborative Policy

Efforts: Coordinating Center

Announcement Description: The HHS Office of Minority Health anticipates funding to support a coordinating center which will: 1) lead the development or identification of a methodological framework, process and tool for identifying policies that promote health disparities by contributing to structural racism, in collaboration with MP-CPI-21-004 cooperative agreement awardees; and 2) provide technical assistance on the implementation and evaluation of the methodological framework, process and tool by MP-CPI-21-004 cooperative agreement awardees. BACKGROUND: Racial and ethnic minority populations experience a number of disparities which contribute to poor health outcomes. Structural racism, evidenced in residential segregation, inequitable allocation and quality of services and resources such as health care and education, disproportionate contact with the justice system, and lack of access to employment opportunities, plays a persistent and large role in historical disadvantage and supports the persistence of racial and ethnic health disparities. A diverse array of policies influence social determinants of health and health outcomes, however, methods for the assessment of and surveillance of policies that affect public health through structural racism is lacking.
