Our Center is proud to be partnering with The Administration on Community Living's " Expanding the Public Health Workforce within the Aging and Disability Networks"  program which provides funding to help cover the costs of staffing to conduct these crucial public health activities.  Professionals funded through this program may provide a wide range of public health services and supports, including culturally affirmative and linguistically accessible information, assistance with accessing vaccines (including boosters) and connecting to other services, transition and diversion from high-risk congregate settings to community living, health and wellness programs, activities that address social isolation and social determinants of health, and other activities that support the public health and well-being of older adults and people with disabilities.  The program will be collaborating with a wide-range of public health officials, their respective departments and various provider agencies.  Program services shall continue through September 2024 and shall provide comprehensive public health and wellness services to individuals with disabilities and older adults across Passaic and Essex Counties.
