MBC’s Public Health projects track the wellbeing of Black Californians across the state, from COVID-19’s impact and vaccine access to the everyday conditions, like food access and air quality, that shape community health. Featuring the Racism as a Public Health Crisis declarations tracker, which recognizes racism itself as a driver of health outcomes. Together, they turn public health data into a tool for advocacy and equitable care.
Designed by MBC for the California Black Health Network in partnership with CHCF, the Health 4 Life: Healthy Black People campaign equips Black Californians with “How Do I…” resources to navigate the healthcare system, advocate for themselves and their loved ones, and take action against discrimination.
This platform centralizes California’s racism-as-public-health-crisis declarations using screen capture technology, stabilizing an accountability tool for activists, policy-makers and communities.
This dashboard tracked the impact of COVID-19 on Black communities across the state — the only Black-focused tracking tool centralizing live data on infections, hospitalizations, deaths, and vaccinations.
An easy-to-use dashboard built for media outlets during COVID-19, identifying vaccination rates in densely populated Black and Latino areas of Riverside County to help target under-reached communities with critical vaccination information.
The Racism as a Public Health Crisis Dashboard tracked county and city declarations across California municipalities, serving as the precursor to the Combating Racism as a Public Health Crisis platform before being discontinued.
