OHE/OMH Publications

In the spring of 2022, Public Health Reports (PHR), in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Office of Minority Health and Health Equity (OMHHE; now CDC’s Office of Health Equity), released a Call for Papers inviting submissions for a supplement on practice-based research about promising and effective strategies for advancing health equity by improving minority health and reducing health disparities. This supplement was envisioned to give state, tribal, local, and territorial public health practitioners opportunities to not only discuss health equity–related insights, but to also highlight their efforts, achievements, and service on behalf of the public, to advance health equity.

The PHR, CDC OHE supplement Practice-Based Health Equity Research from the Frontlines is published and available online.

CDC Health Disparities & Inequalities Report (CHDIR)

The CDC Health Disparities and Inequalities Report is a series of periodic, consolidated assessments that highlight health disparities by sex, race, and ethnicity, income, education, disability status, and other social characteristics in the U.S.

The reports provide analysis and reporting of the recent trends and ongoing variations in health disparities and inequalities in selected social and health indicators, both of which are important steps in encouraging actions and facilitating accountability to reduce modifiable disparities by using interventions that are effective and scalable.
