<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">In collaboration with the state-wide Community Engagement Alliance (CEAL) Against COVID-19, we developed a brief report on ways to achieve equity in vaccination across the state of California.
The attached report is an updated version of this report that includes site specific findings from African American/Black, Latino(x)/Hispanic, and Native American community members on vaccine hesitancies collected via focus groups conducted by community members.
Please share throughout your networks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
