BARHII is a small coalition of Bay Area public health departments, based in Oakland in the Bay Area. It was formed to address preventable decade-long differences in life expectancy that correlate with race, income, and neighborhood. The organization brings together public health staff from across the region to identify emerging public health trends and to advance best practices for health equity. Operating in the public policy space, BARHII coordinates knowledge-sharing among regional agencies and practitioners to tackle health inequities. A recent development involved a collaboration with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco to explore related topics, illustrating engagement with regional institutions. The coalition serves Bay Area public health departments and aims to reduce disparities in health outcomes.
