quotation mark

“I like the way RWJ put it ‘Achieving health equity requires removing obstacles to health such as poverty, discrimination, and their consequences’. We understand that racism and oppression in any form is violence against humanity—including forms that are structural and embedded in systems, policies, and social norms. These are forces at the root that lead to disparities in health and wellness including problem gambling. Our work is part of the solution in addressing and mitigating these harms by building equity.”
