SPRINGFIELD Gov. J.B. Pritzker announced a new state program Monday that aims to increase vaccine access in low-income, vulnerable communities and to connect residents across the state to COVID-19 assistance programs for transportation, food, utilities or other resources.
The COVID-19 Pandemic Health Navigator Program serves areas of the state outside Chicago and Cook County and is funded by $60 million in grants from the Illinois Department of Public Health to regional organizations.
This program is about one-on-one connections involving established, trusted members of the community, whether that s a federally qualified health center or a church or an LGBTQ+ center, a senior center or a local branch of the NAACP, Pritzker said at a news conference at VNA Health Care in Aurora.
