After completing READ: Inequities in Health Institutions, consider the information you heard about in the video “A Broken System: Health Care Inequity” The video focused on Pittsburgh, PA. I would like you to explore what the data looks like in Los Angeles, CA.

Select one area of health disparity and develop 3 sentences:
- a description of the health inequity you want to focus on (2pts)
- a statistic that reflects the Los Angeles area within the health area you selected (2pts)
- a description and link to an organization that is addressing this health disparity in Los Angeles (2pts)
Here is the link to a great website to find some information. But feel free to find another credible source.
