What is Vaccine Equity?

It is National Minority Health Month


April is National Minority Health Month (NMHM)! Partnering for Vaccine Equity, in collaboration with the Montgomery County Immunization Coalition (MCIC) developed a toolkit which provides culturally and linguistically competent social media images and other resources to encourage communities to stay up-to-date on COVID-19 vaccines during NMHM. The toolkit is translated into several different languages.
