VHEI • Vaccines • Mental Health • Dental Health • Social Determinants • All
VHEI works to address and eliminate disparities in healthcare for marginalized communities through targeted outreach, education programs, and direct medical services. Our efforts focus on addressing the root causes of health disparities, empowering BIPOC Vermonters to take charge of their health.
Poverty As An SDOH
Poverty is a social determinant of health (SDOH) that can significantly impact the health and well-being of BIPOC communities. Poverty can lead to social and economic disadvantages that can hold BIPOC communities back and cause barriers to success. If you are living in poverty in Vermont and seeking support and resources, we encourage you to explore these resources.
