One of New Jersey s largest academic healthcare systems, RWJBarnabas Health, announced this week a new initiative aimed at addressing systemic racism while promoting an antiracist culture within its organization and the communities it serves.
Called Ending Racism, Together, the program intends to create racial, ethnic and cultural equity by uplifting disenfranchised communities that face poor health, social, economic and educational outcomes at the hands of racism.
RWJBarnabas is focusing its efforts on four primary areas: patient care, workforce, community, and system operations. It has taken an evidence-based approach and each area has quantifiable tactics of measurement to track progress across the organizational, facility, and individual levels.
