Trusted Community Connectors

In 2022, Ramsey County partnered with 12 trusted community agencies to connect residents with accurate, culturally appropriate information about the COVID-19 vaccine and opportunities to get vaccinated. This program has ended.

Trusted Community Connectors helped community members understand truthful information about COVID-19, answered questions and helped educate residents about the vaccines, including families with children ages 6 months and older. Connectors helped make vaccine appointments and gave recommendations for walk-up vaccination sites.
