New Jersey's history demonstrates how public policy decisions and upstream factors can significantly impact citizens' health, highlighting the need for policies to address economic and racial disparities in healthcare.

Format: Hardback
Length: 262 pages
Publication date: 22 April 2023
Publisher: Rutgers University Press


While New Jersey has recently been recognized as one of the healthiest states in the Americas, this was not always the case. The state's overall health levels are influenced by a range of structural factors, including pollution, urban design, and the consolidation of the healthcare industry. This book uses the past fifty years of New Jersey history as a case study to demonstrate how public policy decisions and other upstream factors can significantly impact the health of a state's citizens. It reveals how economic and racial disparities in healthcare were exacerbated by poor policies related to zoning, education, and environmental regulation. The study also chronicles how New Jersey grappled with public health crises such as the AIDS epidemic and the crack epidemic. However, it also explores how the state has developed innovative responses to public health challenges, offering policy recommendations for building an even healthier New Jersey.
