Our Structure
The Center for Community Health Equity is structured around four Cores.
Direction Core
Provides administrative oversight for the Center. It is comprised of faculty and student representatives from DePaul and Rush.
Discovery Core
The research wing of the Center. It is organized around different levels of study – individuals, the Rush community area, the city of Chicago, and cross-city comparisons.
Design Core
The action wing of the Center, where our work focuses on the development of interventions as well as the use of social entrepreneurship in the development of not-for-profit community organizations.
Dissemination Core
Focuses on sharing the work of the Center with community partners, faculty and students.
