Afghan refugees and immigrants deserve equitable healthcare access and education, and that includes COVID-19 prevention and mitigation. Join this webinar to hear how the Afghan Health Initiative, Washington State Department of Health, and clinicians serving refugee and immigrant communities have worked with community leaders to overcome challenges, build on community strengths, and improve COVID-19 vaccine uptake in Washington’s Afghan community. Participants will be able to learn from these successes as they plan to welcome Afghan new arrivals into their local communities.
