When we talk about health care policy in America, very rarely do we mention the roles that class and race play in determining our access to and the quality of health care that we receive.  At The Opportunity Agenda, one of our major goals is to increase awareness about these issues and to advocate for solutions that expand equal access to quality health care for all.

To that end, today we are launching a new project - Health Care That Works.

Health Care That Works is a Google Maps mash-up designed to visually illustrate the economic and racial disparities that exist in New York City's health care system, and drive all New Yorker's of conscience to take action by emailing their elected officials.
