Dear Colleagues:
The Final Conference Report of the New Orleans Health Disparities
Initiative is now available. The report, titled ?Rebuilding a Healthy
New Orleans? grew out of a community-based conference in June of 2006
on the need to address minority health disparities in both the health
care system rebuilding and in the environment after Hurricane Katrina.
Since then, participants in the conference process have continued to
develop the analysis from the conference, and the final report
presents an important framework for assessing environmental justice
and health system rebuilding in the New Orleans region.
The report includes chapters by AlMarie Ford, Bob Bullard, Shelia
Webb, Benjamin Springgate, and Judy Solomon and was co-sponsored by
the Poverty & Race Research Action Council, the Alliance for Healthy
Homes, the Center for Social Inclusion and the Health Policy Institute
of the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies. The report is
available at [www.prrac.org]. Link:

Sincerely,
Nkiru Azikiwe
Health Policy Fellow
