Abstract
This report is part of the Mixed-Income Strategic Alliance’s exploration of the linkages among mixed-income communities, the social determinants of health, and improving health outcomes. This report considers the key opportunities and challenges for anchor institutions and mixed-income communities. It was developed through interviews with national experts as well as a review of salient articles, research reports, and publicly-available information. It speaks to the promising examples of anchors who are stepping forward to lead, support, and invest in mixed-income communities, but it also notes the real or perceived deterrents and barriers that stand in the way for anchors. After noting both, the report outlines strategic possibilities for more anchors to step forward to lead and/or support mixed-income communities and address the social determinants of health.
