NOHD Health Disparity Reports

As part of this commitment, we are proud to release the 10-Year Health Disparity Reports, a comprehensive analysis of health trends and disparities across New Orleans over the past decade.

These reports provide critical insights into the social, economic, and environmental factors shaping health outcomes in our community. They are designed to inform policymakers, community leaders, and residents about the progress made and the challenges that remain in achieving health equity.
