Enhancing Immunization Rates for East African Children in Brooklyn and Riverside Clinics

This project aims to improve the immunization rates for 2-year-old East African children at Brooklyn Center and Riverside Clinics by implementing targeted interventions and fostering community engagement. The team, composed of healthcare professionals and community members, focuses on reducing the number of African American or Black children aged 18-23 months who are not up-to-date with their immunizations. Utilizing Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycles, the project emphasizes collaboration, community advisory integration, and addressing challenges related to time and resource utilization for effective outcomes.
