How Visualizing Data is Changing the Conversation in Public Health | Connecticut Health Foundation: "Is there a connection between your health and where you live?This link between community and health, and the inequity that can result, is not always intuitive, but the Connecticut Association of the Directors of Health (CADH), a membership organization of Connecticut’s 75 local health departments, is working to change that. The Health Equity Index seeks to make that link not only intuitive, but visible and useful. And with a more visible link, local health departments working in partnership with policy-makers, municipal departments, and the residents they serve can start to examine the underlying causes of health inequities. (Currently, the Index is being made available only to select audiences.)"
