Tip 1: Know how to identify people with disabilities in your community. Many population health surveys use the six standard disability questions to identify disabled people.https://ow.ly/NVk050SsSeN These questions can also be used to help you identify people who need accommodations. For example, these questions can be incorporated into your State’s National Quitline to identify people with disabilities and any accommodations needed for tobacco cessation.

Everyone deserves access to respectful care and strong community support during pregnancy and birth. Recognizing the current system of care delivery as a root cause of inequities, Carrington Lott, MPH, Deputy Director of Systems for Action, calls our attention to several leaders building the evidence that can pave the way toward a more inclusive and effective healthcare system for all birthing people. 🔸 Malini Nijagal and Patience Afulani champion the “Pop-Up Village” model to connect pregnant people and their families to the health and social services they need, engage in self-care, and celebrate in community. 🔸 Felix Muchomba has mapped maternal health in New Jersey leading to early research findings that show adding $1,000 annual per capita spending on housing and social services can significantly reduce life-threatening outcomes of labor and delivery. 🔸 Venice Williams is part of a team who has recruited and trained family leaders to participate on an advisory committee and is exploring ways to expand the reach of programs like Nurse-Family Partnership, which offers free care from prenatal nurses to first-time parents. From safe and culturally inclusive spaces to comprehensive cross-sector care models, RWJF is proud to support leaders across Systems for Action, Evidence for Action (E4A), and Policies for Action who are confronting the inequities in our systems to ensure health is no longer a privilege, but a right. https://rwjf.ws/3JSoWFZ
