MS. PSAKI: Hi, everyone. Okay, I have a couple of notes for you at the top.
Today, the Department of Health and Human Services, through the Health Resources and Services Administration, awarded $121 million in American Rescue Plan funding to support the work of trusted community-based efforts to increase vaccinations in underserved communities.
This is the second round of funding for community-based groups. Back in June, HHS awarded $125 million to similar groups for these efforts.
And these groups will undertake efforts such as mobilizing community outreach workers to educate and assist individuals in accessing and receiving COVID-19 vaccinations, organize pop-up or mobile vaccine locations, and assist in making vaccine appointments or arranging transportation and childcare assistance for vaccine appointments.
