Erie County looks at new way to tackle old problem: serious health disparities


The issue of health disparities in Buffalo and Erie County is an old one. But the question of what to do about it keeps getting new answers.

The latest answer is the creation of a new Erie County Office of Health Equity, which will expand the county Health Department with an additional nine full-time jobs. Those salaries will initially be covered by federal American Rescue Plan dollars but will result in future recurring costs.
