Help Shape Health Priorities in New Bedford

The New Bedford Health Equity Community of Practice wants your input on policies that could have the greatest impact on our community. 

Community health isn’t just about doctor visits and clinics; it’s reflected in the quality of our housing, access to fresh local produce, safe outdoor spaces, and supportive care for growing families. True health equity means everyone in New Bedford has the resources and opportunities they need to thrive.

To turn that vision into reality, the New Bedford Health Equity Community of Practice (HECoP) is calling on local residents to share their perspectives through the Community Policy Impact Survey.

Policy decisions directly shape our daily environment and quality of life. Whether you are advocating for improved maternal care, expanded community gardens, better housing standards, or local healthcare access, your lived experiences provide the insight needed to drive meaningful change.

Building a healthier, more equitable New Bedford requires a collective effort. Take the survey today and help shape the future of our community!
