After three years of pandemic fatigue High Country Community Health was working hard to keep COVID-19 boosters top of mind. Servicing rural North Carolina they were fighting an uphill battle with a skeptical and hard-to-reach audience. Together we launched a campaign to combat this weariness, using playful language that reflected the actual sentiment felt by the people we were targeting. Click here to learn more: bit.ly/3SOZo1N

May is Older Americans Month Every May, the Administration for Community Living leads the nation’s observance of Older Americans Month (OAM). The 2024 theme is Powered by Connection, which recognizes the profound impact that meaningful relationships and social connections have on our health and well-being. Join us in promoting the benefits of connecting with others. Here are some ways you can participate: Share facts about the mental, physical, and emotional health benefits of social connection and how it contributes to overall well-being. Promote resources that help older adults engage, like community events, social clubs and volunteer opportunities. Connect older adults with local services, such as transportation, which can help them overcome obstacles to achieving or maintaining meaningful relationships.

✊🏽 It's National Community Health Center Week and today we are talking about how racism makes us sick. While race itself doesn’t determine health, experiencing racism profoundly impacts it. This can be as personal as someone receiving poor medical care from a racist provider, or as systemic as entire structures that treat people of color poorly. Racism is so connected to health that it can be deadly: The maternal death rate among Black Americans is 2.6 times higher than for White Americans. Our Priscilla Project doulas protect Black and Brown people giving birth, both in Buffalo and in our clinics in the DRC, Sierra Leone, and Nepal. The narratives we repeat, the segregation we enforce, and the way we respond to harm, all affect our health. History is repeating itself, often under new names and disguises. We must tell the truth about our racist past if we hope to create a future where everyone is healthy and whole. ❤️ #NationalCommunityHealthCenterWeek #RacismAndHealth #HealthEquity #CommunityHealth #JerichoRoad #PriscillaProject
