Curriculum Collection Team

Curriculum Collection and General Resources Team

Our team is dedicated to curating, organizing, and maintaining high-quality SDOH resources that are ready to be implemented or adapted to your setting. The curriculum collection seeks to highlight critical subject areas for educators teaching about the social determinants of health to a variety of audiences.

Educators everywhere are looking for support and guidance to teach their students about SDOH and we hope to fill that gap by providing a space for dissemination of the many innovative curricular that are being created and implemented. Our goal is to make it easy for educators to find SDOH material to support teaching the next generation of health care professionals.
