Over 200 health departments and other public agencies have declared racism a public health crisis or emergency. As the American Public Health Association (APHA) notes, “These declarations are an important first step in the movement to advance racial equity and justice and must be followed by allocation of resources and strategic action.” A crisis as complex and harmful as racism must be addressed through all available strategic actions, including workforce training and education.

Through a five-session ECHO Public Health series supported by the Public Health Performance Improvement Network (phPIN), performance improvement practitioners were introduced to tools, strategies, and other resources to operationalize anti-racism, social justice, and health equity principles through performance management. This guide includes resources and tools that were featured in the training series.
