RH Community Outreach Projects
The RH Community Outreach Projects create opportunities for Community-based Organizations (CBOs) serving immigrant communities, communities of color, and populations experiencing inequities in health outcomes, to promote access to healthcare, to increase community engagement, and to create systems that are responsive to and reflective of their community's identified needs.
Participating CBOs provide reproductive health education, community outreach, and related services to support communities in accessing reproductive health at clinics certified by the RH Program. These projects support the creation of a model of partnership and collaboration that serve to improve reproductive health outcomes across the state.
Examples of activities undertaken by the CBOs include:
- Working with youth to increase awareness and access to care
- Creating outreach and education materials using Tik Tok, Facebook, and other social media platforms
- Assisting individuals in enrollment, making appointments, and troubleshooting issues related to accessing RHCare
- Developing culturally-specific education trainings
- Parent engagement
- Virtual outreach
- In-person outreach - farmworking camps, health fairs, COVID testing events, etc.
