Peer Review Feedback From Divya

[edit]

Hi Nidhi!

Here is some of my feedback from our class discussion: With regards to your social determinants of health in poverty article: I love the definitions and measurements! For health, you mention structural and proximal, and this was really helpful for me when trying to understand how to organize different approaches/lenses through which to view poverty in health. I would say, make sure to cite your sources for this framework -- because there may be other frameworks in this field also!

I would also suggest you compare and contrast structural and proximal -- how do structural and proximal determinants affect adolescent health in different ways? Perhaps some statistics about structural vs. proximal would be nice to supplement your argument!

For the suitcase clinic article, I think also with the overview it might be nice to explore the other healthcare options for homeless people in the area like Berkeley Free Clinic for example. (Just to show the landscape of options available and to explain why or why not Suitcase provides a good alternative to those in the status quo.

I think putting information about homeless individuals is good for context, but I think it would be most effective to connect their needs and challenges they face that suitcase uniquely addresses. This may help a reader who is looking at other clinics in the area to understand what unique value Suitcase brings (because like you said in class, they provide a lot of support and sanitary supplies, which is very different than clinics that may be primarily focused on medicine distribution).

I also love the addition the LGBTQ+ in the youth clinic section, you have such great statistics and sources for this and I think it was definitely a missing piece in the article previously.

For the last part to answer the question you had embedded - how did you get this information in the first place? Maybe retrace steps there to find a source? If not, I think speaking with some of the Suitcase members/advisors who have been there a while, or putting down the date of the policy determination could be helpful! Hope this helps! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Divyanekkanti (talkcontribs) 20:11, 9 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
