The City of Albany was awarded a $3.9 million grant from Health and Human Services and the Office of Minority Health to reduce COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in specific regions of Albany and Dougherty County. The City, in partnership with Albany State University (ASU), is now seeking community-based organizations to apply for grants to create programming. These programs should aim to improve COVID-19 health literacy and access to COVID-19 testing and vaccinations for those residing in East and South Albany.
