Subject: What should public health's response be to health inequalities?
Date: Saturday, September 20, 1997 6:31 PM

In regards to the following:

"The text of a discussion paper is available at:

http://www.utoronto.ca/chl5003/raphael.html"


Any concrete examples of progressive public health
institutional responses to inequalities would be
appreciated. Certainly, I have become aware of the BMJ
series of articles, for example.

The text site mentioned above highlights the City of
Toronto's approaches. Other examples are needed.
