Immediately hailed by local media as a “landmark report,” For the Sake of All: A Report on the Health and Well-Being of African Americans in St. Louis—And Why It Matters for Everyone, is the product of a collaboration between scholars at Washington University and Saint Louis University. The report revealed startling disparities in the St. Louis region, highlighting social, economic and environmental factors that drive differences in health and life outcomes for African Americans. The initiative has since evolved into a mission to eliminate racial inequities and improve the health of all people in the region.
