Organizations struggle to develop an operational approach to implementing Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) strategies that address the needs of all of its stakeholders, while advancing health equity. Discerning the differences between JEDI and health equity, as two separate, but related priorities impacting the health and wellness of communities is a critical first step to overcoming this challenge.
In this session we will define the terms, identify principles for an equitable healthcare system, and highlight a model for designing sustainable actions guided by a JEDI lens.
