Due to the ongoing and prolonged impact of COVID-19, our funding in 2022 will prioritize basic needs, as well as social determinants of health supporting such basic needs.

GHF applies a health equity lens to our goals and strategies. Inequities in health are often socially determined. Health equity strategies seek to increase opportunities for everyone, regardless of their circumstances, to live the healthiest life possible. GHF views the pursuit of health equity as a way to correct or challenge factors outside a person’s control that negatively impact their health, e.g., lack of resources, education, or income.
