Maximizing Federal COVID-19 Recovery Investments for Resilience and Equity: Examples From Across the Nation

View Brief

This brief provides examples of community innovations using Aligning in Crisis’ four guiding principles for a resilient and equitable recovery to the COVID-19 pandemic:

  • Aligning sectors and efforts is critical to advance health and racial equity.
  • A coordinated strategy guides the work and investments.
  • Intermediary organizations are ready and able to assist.
  • Community leadership drives lasting change.

The Georgia Health Policy Center, in partnership with the School of Public Health at George Washington University and with support from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, is identifying, synthesizing, and disseminating cross-sector policy and implementation opportunities that facilitate recovery from the triple crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic, impacts of the 2020 economic downturn, and the ongoing impact of structural racism. The work – Aligning in Crisis — builds on Aligning Systems for Health: Health Care + Public Health + Social Services.
