2 The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don t want, drink what you don t like, and do what you d druther not. - - Mark Twain
3 Social Determinants of Health CondiQons in an individual s physical and social environment that affect his or her health The social determinants of health are the circumstances in which people are born, grow up, live, work, and age, as well as the systems put in place to deal with illness. These circumstances are in turn shaped by a wider set of forces: economics, social policies, and poliqcs. - Social Determinants of Health Key Concepts, World Health Organiza<on
4 Examples of Social Determinants Poor Housing Condi-ons Lead poisoning Asthma Physical and mental disabiliqes and developmental delays Injury Lack of Income; Public Benefit Denials Hunger and malnutriqon Low- birth weight Chronic health condiqons Depression Inadequate School Services School failure Poor health behaviors
5 A Look at Kane County 41,622 individuals are diabeqc (2013) 78,040 individuals report having no health insurance (2013) 19% of children live in poverty (2013) 61,375 individuals live in poverty (2012) 52,249 residents report food insecurity (2011)
6 Current PracQce is Not Working Doctors recognize but are not trained to uncover the link between social circumstances and disease. Social history focuses on health behaviors related to illness, not environmental contribu0ons. Public benefits programs designed to respond to social needs underlying health problems are inconsistently implemented. Lack of legal services aeorneys to respond to overwhelming need.
7 Medical- Legal Partnerships Medical- Legal Partnerships consist of health care providers, social workers, aeorneys and other professionals who work together to remedy the non- medical sources of clients health problems. Medical professionals are trained to idenqfy legal concerns and refer clients to the advocacy team of aeorneys and social workers who work on resolving these issues. The common goal is to promote the health and well- being of clients by addressing unmet social and legal needs.
8 Interdisciplinary CollaboraQon Medical Legal Alex Social Work
9 Examples of MLP RepresentaQon Areas Housing: evicqon, habitability, uqlity advocacy Employment and public benefits: SSI, SSDI, Medicaid, Medicare, SNAP, TANF Family: divorce, custody, visitaqon Special educa-on and disability advocacy

17 I can easily write a prescripqon for an asthma- controller medicaqon but cannot write a prescripqon to rid the child's home of the many toxins that contribute to a child's worsening asthma. I can refer a child to a mental- health provider but cannot write a prescripqon to decrease a child's exposure to toxic stressors such as interpersonal violence, bullying, and poverty.
