Social determinants are rooted in a community’s
underlying social and economic conditions – issues
such as racism, income inequality, environment
etc. Not all social determinants lead to social risks for
an individual.
Social risks are the specific adverse social conditions
that result from social determinants – issues such as
food insecurity, isolation and housing instability. Not
all social risk factors lead to “social needs.”
Social needs are adverse conditions and concrete
needs that result from social risks.
