Equalizing health outcomes and eliminating health disparitiesReaching Racial/Ethnic Minorities with Health Education
As part of the State Partnership Grant Program to Improve Minority Health, the Nebraska Office of Minority Health and Health Equity (OMH) held 14 meetings across the state in the fall of 2006 to discuss reaching minorities with health education.
The purpose of the meetings was to assess minority health education needs. The goal was to learn how the OMH could better help its community partners be more effective in their minority health education efforts.
87 organizations participated in the meetings. The participating communities serve a variety of minority population groups, including non-immigrant, immigrant, and refugee groups.
Results of the meetings indicate that the Strategic Plan of the Nebraska Office of Minority Health is well designed to address many of the needs of communities across Nebraska.
