About the Community Prevention & Population Health Task Force (Task Force) |
|
Since its inception in the Spring of 2016, the Task Force has elevated opportunities to improve health equity in Los Angeles County. Task Force members have weighed in on critical policy decisions, including public health protections for people living near neighborhood oil drilling sites, Measure A allocations for equitably improving access to local parks, and priorities for the new offices such as the Office of Violence Prevention and the Office of Environmental Justice and Climate Health, housed within DPH. Additionally, the Task Force serves as the advisory body to the Center for Health Equity and provides leadership and strategic direction for community health planning in L.A. County, which includes the Community Health Equity Improvement Plan (CHEIP), and other strategic efforts to promote strong population health, health equity, and racial justice. Task Force members are appointed for a three-year term either through selection by the Board of Supervisors or by DPH. The fifth cohort of the Task Force began their term on June 2025, representing a wide array of experience and expertise. The Office of Planning, Integration and Engagement (PIE) - Planning Unit is excited to staff the Task Force and support their efforts to advance health, equity and community well-being in Los Angeles County.
