for the Advancement of Community Care
It is the mission of the Brancati Center to improve the health of communities by developing new models of healthcare in partnership with community organizations. Our Center is organized into three well-integrated units: Community Program Implementation, Education, and Community-based Research. Our focus is on providing access to evidence-based programs through partnerships with the community where people live, as well as to demonstrate outcomes.
Happy New Year! As we enter 2023, COVID-19 remains an issue in our community. We remind you to get vaccinated or boosted. In this month's issue of the Brancati Bulletin we announce our work, funded by the Baltimore City Health Department, with Walgreens to increase COVID-19 vaccines in our community. January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month, and we outline risk factors and how to prevent cervical cancer through screening. We also spotlight the Brancati Center's DECIDE program for people with diabetes while we also continue to recruit for our Diabetes Prevention Program for people with prediabetes. As you consider your New Year's resolutions, we offer tips on increasing physical activity, a way to get healthier and feel better. As always, we welcome your thoughts on what you'd like to see in the Brancati Bulletin.
