The mission and goal of the (HHESA) Network is to connect as many of those who have come through the educational programs associated with the CRMH/ICC/HDEART as well as other individuals who share the vision and/or philosophy of the HDEART Health Equity Scholars. The philosophy that no one profession or no one institution alone will solve the issue of health inequities. That it will take all of us, working together, speaking with one voice for the benefit of the whole that will get us to where we need to be. Membership does not depend on whether you are still doing health equity research or not. Again, we believe that health alone will not solve the issue of health inequities.

Here are two articles written on some of the reasons why connecting the dots is so important.
