View Award Description

Suburban Cook County COVID-19 Health Equity Initiative - As part of the federal funding opportunity, National Initiative to Address COVID-19 Health Disparities Among Population at High Risk and Underserved, Cook County Department of Public Health (CCDPH) will use a multi-pronged approach to implement an array of activities that build CCDPH's infrastructure and workforce, capitalize on existing opportunities and needs, consider systematic and contextual barriers, and collectively aim to prvent and control the spread of COVID-19 and reduce related health disparities in suburban Cook County, Illinois over a two-year period. Called the Suburban Cook County COVID-19 Health Equity Initiative, this Initiative proposes a bold vision to facilitate a culture change within CCDPH and across suburban Cook County that builds thriving communities where everyone feels valued, connected and safe, and has equitable access to resources and opportunities for physicial, mental and social well-being. Suburban Cook County, Illinois is large and geopolitically complex. The region is vast, covering 700 square miles with a population of nearly 2.5 million people. Suburban Cook County has nearly 130 municipalities that include some of the wealthiest and poorest communities in the State of Illinois. COVID-19 elucidated long-known inequities in health outcomes and life expectancy among populations of color in which historical and present systems of oppression are a large contributing factor. Given this, this Initiatve will focus many of its activities on communities and populations disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 and who are underserved (e.g., people of color). The impact of the Iniative is to prevent and control the spread of COVID-19 and reduce health disparities. To achieve this goal and align with the four strategies of this funding opportunity, the Initiative will be organized around: (1) provision of County-wide evidence-based programs and services; (2) development of CCDPH infrastructure and capacity, including data systems; and (3) mobilization of community-based organizations to reach populations disproportationately impacted by COVID-19 or who are underserved with effective culturally and linguistically tailored outreach and education, programs and services, and policy and systems improvements that advance health equity. CCDPH with its partners will embed strategic collaboration, capacity building, health literacy, and communication and social marketing techniques across the strategies to advance and sustain activities that will be undertaken in this Initiative. Outcomes include increased CCDPH, community, and the overall public health system's capacity and services; increased value for public health and awareness and understanding of COVID-19-related information; a shift in the narrative related to health equity; improved contact tracing and acess to testing, vaccine, healthcare and other resources, especially for people of color; and strengthened policies, systems and programs that affect communities and populations disproportionately by COVID-19 or who are underserved.
