As both New York City and New York State announce plans for reopening this summer, the majority of people in Brooklyn remain unvaccinated—especially in our Black and Latinx communities.

Join us for the next program in our Change Starts Here webinar series for a conversation with health care and nonprofit leaders on the frontlines of vaccine equity, to discuss what strategies are working to ensure that no communities are left behind in the fight against COVID-19.

Sponsored by the Brooklyn Community Foundation. Learn more about our Brooklyn COVID-19 Response Fund.
