Nursing@USC, the online Family Nurse Practitioner Program at the University of Southern California, has published a resource titled “Does Race Increase Your Chance of Asthma?” The visual and written guide investigates the social determinants of health that affect asthma and examines how they impact black children as opposed to their white peers. The guide details various causes and exacerbations of asthma and offers suggestions on how to reduce asthma triggers, as well as how to combat asthma through affecting the social determinants of health.
