Description
Paper Components:
Choose a cultural group in which you feel you have an active identity around or involvement with and provide some background on the culture
Describe your relationship to this culture
Provide historical context for the culture, including its origins and key developments that have helped shape the culture and the experience of its members, with a focus on challenges to social justice and equity
Membership demographics and characteristics who makes up this culture, such as nationality, race/ethnicity, spirituality/religion, and location
Identify and describe a disparity experienced by this group. This can be:
A health disparity which is a higher burden of illness, injury, disability, or mortality experienced by one group relative to another
Note: You may not write about diabetes or obesity
A health care disparity which typically refers to differences between groups in health insurance coverage, access to and use of care, and quality of culturally appropriate care, or
A disparity in the social determinants of health such as access to quality education or housing and how that affects the groups health
Create an argument with supportive data that either:
Presents data that support your beliefs about the identified disparity in this population, OR
Discuss why you think the existing data does NOT support the existence of the health disparity, OR
Explain why you think the data does not exist to support the disparity (e.g., the cultural group not historically being counted in national data, such as with transgender communities)
The data and analysis should include:
Who experiences the disparity, who is/are the comparison groups, and data on the specific disparity?
The significance and/or outcomes of the disparity
Factors that affect the disparity such as policies or the absence of policies, access to culturally appropriate care, location and the built environment, or access to education.
Identify a public health initiative that has been implemented for the disparity in the identified cultural group:
What was the initiative(s) about, including the region it was conducted, priority population, and strategies and activities that are utilized in the initiative?
What makes the initiative culturally competent?
How did the organization engage their identified population?
How successful were the initiatives in addressing the disparity and improving health outcomes in your chosen population group?
Discuss suggestions or recommendations you have to supplement or improve the initiative(s)
In developing supplements or improvements to current programs or public health initiatives for this population group, base your ideas on the concepts you have learned in this class (e.g., social-ecological model, public health planning frameworks)
