The UCSF Action Research Center (ARC) for Health Equity leads research to transform systems and create the conditions that support everyone in living a good and healthy life.
ARC coordinates, accelerates, and supports the work of 40+ faculty across UCSF. Our rigorous, field-leading research covers a wide range of topics from homelessness, incarceration, and food insecurity to immigrant health and diversity in the health workforce.
We translate our research into action by supporting institutional and community-based interventions and initiatives and by informing policy- and decision-makers about the structural and systemic issues that affect health equity.
