As we approach the 20th anniversary of the creation of EHDI, we've been reflecting on our state’s investment in these grants and its impact over the years, as well as what future investments are needed in order to strengthen Minnesota’s ecosystem to advance health equity for all. Out of this reflecting, analyzing, and visioning came this report: Cultivating a Health Equity Ecosystem: Lessons Learned from the Eliminating Health Disparities Initiative.
