Social, educational, and cultural differences experienced throughout generations by people of various cultures has a genetic impact and predisposition to medical, physical, mental, emotional and behavioral responses.

In addition, systemic inequities that have been rooted in both conscious and unconscious bias throughout the systems in place meant to provide health, education, and social services continue to deeply impact many people’s ability to thrive in society.
