Learners will use demographic data and public health tools to identify populations facing healthcare access challenges. Learners will apply equity frameworks to assess community health needs holistically, analyzing how social determinants and structural factors create disparities. Learners will evaluate whether health services are culturally responsive and accessible, and will design evidence-based interventions and policy proposals addressing barriers to equitable care for underserved communities.

Familiarity with basic health concepts and understanding of how social factors affect health is beneficial. Prior exposure to health disparities or community health work is helpful but not required. Commitment to health equity principles and openness to examining systemic barriers are important dispositions for success. Basic data literacy skills are useful but not mandatory.
