What a great start!  

I haven’t been on this list-serve very long nor have I read all the books in regards to SDOH, so this may seem like an ignorant question, but would someone be able to outline the specifics of the desired changes that you mention?   

You refer to “amendments of statutes on policy and governance”, “pressure the government on implementation”, and “demands based on civil and human rights toward health”.  After all the great discussions on the list-serve, is there a specific statute or group of statutes that could be identified right now, amended and presented in strategic ways to pressure/demand the government for implementation?   Since the list-serve is called Social Determinants of Health I imagine that there are one or two basic demands that would represent everyone's concerns - at least for a start.  Isn't poverty one?  Is there a statute that could be rewritten that would have a major impact on decreasing poverty?
