As the first Equity Officer at ACBH, it is heartening to celebrate this year’s theme, “Embracing Equity”. The Office of Health Equity was developed in the Fall of 2020, in response to a critical need for the department to remain forever grounded in the important work and focus of its most important resource: individuals and family that form our shared community. Women, no doubt play vital roles in all the communities we serve. We take this time to honor and uplift the critical role that women play in the work that we do throughout our care delivery system.

Black History Month: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow A message brought to you by the ACBH Office of Health Equity DATE: February 2023
As we begin Black History Month, many voices have already acknowledged that we do so from a place of
optimism, hope, and pride. For this, we may all be thankful. Our Health Equity Division also recognizes that
even with this perspective, one must authentically also hold an awareness that there is still much to do. A simple
glance at stereotypical or negative portrayals of members of the African American community in the media; the
real-time legislation being proposed in parts of the United States that would either downplay, ignore, or outright
erase aspects of African American History; or the persistence of institutional oppression and its impact on
wellness overall paint a clear, albeit nuanced picture.
