Abstract:
Abstract Background Based on national recommendations,1 Beth Israel Lahey Health (BILH) in Eastern Massachusetts (MA) prioritized vulnerable communities in our distribution of COVID-19 vaccines. We hypothesized that creating prioritized access to appointments for patients in these communities would increase the likelihood vaccination. Methods The BILH health system sent vaccine invitations first to patients of two clinics in vulnerable neighborhoods in Boston (Wave 1), followed by other patients from vulnerable communities (Wave 2) up to 1 day later, and then by all other patients (Wave 3) aft

Abstract:
Background People from underserved communities such as those from lower socioeconomic positions or racial and ethnic minority groups are often disproportionately targeted by the tobacco industry, through the relatively high levels of tobacco retail outlets (TROs) located in their neighborhood or protobacco marketing and promotional strategies. It is difficult to capture the smoking behaviors of individuals in actual locations as well as the extent of exposure to tobacco promotional efforts. With the high ownership of smartphones in the United States—when used alongside data sources on TRO loca

Abstract:
Abstract Background. Inequitable access to health-harming substances in the built environment can create and exacerbate race and SES-based disparities in cancer incidence and mortality. Availability and density of tobacco and alcohol outlets is associated with increased experimentation, initiation, and regular use of alcohol and tobacco products. Prior studies examining the sale of tobacco and alcohol indicate that these outlets tend to be concentrated in communities of color and low-income areas. Massachusetts has highlighted environmental justice (EJ), one’s right to be protected from hazard

Abstract:
This paper explores how redlining has disproportionately impacted the Boston neighborhoods of Dorchester, Roxbury, and Mattapan. Initiated in the 1930s, the discriminatory practice of marking these neighborhoods as high-risk for lending has led to significant health inequities today. The paper focuses on how limited access to healthier foods in these areas contributes to a higher prevalence of chronic diseases such as hypertension and obesity, compared to wealthier neighborhoods. Additionally, the paper examines interventions aimed at reducing health disparities by improving affordability and

Abstract:
Abstract This paper examines folk perceptions of language in the Greater Boston Area. In particular, it seeks to understand which areas are associated with a “Boston” accent, and whether associations are changing given recent shifts in ethnic and economic demographics. A total of 111 Greater Boston residents completed a survey and map task asking what constitutes a “Boston” accent, who has one, and in which areas one can be heard. Results show that the majority of participants perceive the neighborhood of South Boston to be the geographic epicenter of the “Boston” accent, and generally associa

Abstract:
This is the second of two chapters (Chapters 6 and 7) that analyze the Dartmouth-based fieldwork data in eastern Massachusetts. This chapter “zooms in” to focus on particular subgroups within the Hub data set. First, the chapter provides statistical and graphical comparisons of traditional New England dialect features by contrasting two nearby groups: White speakers in the traditional working-class South Boston neighborhood, and Black/African American speakers in nearby Dorchester, Hyde Park, and other neighborhoods. The chapter concludes with a fieldwork project in Cape Cod. In each case, the
