WHAT WE DO

Addressing the Social Determinants of Health

Health starts in our homes, schools, workplaces, neighborhoods, and communities. NTCC is addressing issues that affect the health of our community simultaneously.

​

Examples of the Social Determinants of Health include:

​

• Availability of resources to meet daily needs (e.g., safety, quality housing and local food markets)

• Access to equitable education offerings, economic, and job opportunities

• Access to health care services

• Transportation options

• Public safety

• Social norms and attitudes (e.g., discrimination, racism, and distrust of government)

• Exposure to crime, violence, and social disorder 

• Social support

• Language/Literacy

• Opportunities for recreational and leisure-time activities
