The Vaccine Health Equity Initiative (VHEI) aimed to increase COVID-19 vaccination rates among underserved and underrepresented communities.

Through a Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) approach, we actively engaged with local organizations and community partners to develop targeted educational materials and outreach strategies to enhance vaccine navigation and services. In order to address disparities that contribute to vaccine uptake, our goal was to provide accurate, evidence-based information about COVID-19 vaccines, while addressing community concerns and empowering individuals to make informed decisions about their health.
