According to the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, health equity occurs when “everyone has a fair and just opportunity to be as healthy as possible. This requires removing obstacles to health such as poverty, discrimination, and their consequences, including powerlessness and lack of access to good jobs with fair pay, quality education and housing, safe environments, and health care.” Creating conditions that improve health and addressing the social determinants of health are fundamental to health equity.
