We’re proud to have recognized Latino Connection as a 2024 CMS Health Equity Award winner for their work in helping to improve health care access in Hispanic communities. They recently worked to address health disparities through the Community-Accessible Testing & Education (CATE) initiative. The impact of CATE has been profound, reaching thousands of Pennsylvanians with lifesaving resources and education. Between 2020 and 2022, nearly 9,000 COVID-19 tests and over 17,000 vaccinations were administered across the state, particularly in vulnerable and underserved communities who may not have had access otherwise. CATE also provided 500 flu shots and 10,000 PPE kits, resources, and education in both English and Spanish to the more than 37,000 people that attended all of their community events combined. Latino Connection's CATE initiative exemplifies the transformative power of community-driven interventions in addressing health disparities.
