According to the 2017-2022 Adams County Community Health Improvement Plan(CHIP) and local public health experts, health equity awareness is an identified priority healtharea central to increasing community engagement with public health initiatives and policies(Adams County Community Health Improvement Plan 2017-2022, 2017). This paper will outlinetwo proposals including an example of a social media-based and an in-person intervention fordisseminating health equity information to Adams County residents. By combining interventionsthat can be implemented in both the short- and long-term, we believe the overall messages ofimproving community resilience, safety, and economic wellbeing will increase local awarenessof the importance of health equity.
