Listen to the report here In early April, Monterey County and a group of community organizations held a COVID-19 vaccine clinic in a school gym in the rural city of Soledad. In a promotional video produced about the event, locals shared what brought them out to get their vaccinations. “I did it to protect my kids,” said Greenfield farm worker Rosa Chavez in Spanish. “My family encouraged me to take the COVID vaccine…and I feel more secure now,” said Soledad resident Maria Ruiz. The video highlights a Monterey County program known as Virus Integration Distribution of Aid (VIDA), which uses rural clinics and other outreach efforts to bring COVID-19-related resources to people like Chavez and Ruiz in hard-to-reach communities. The crux of the program involves community health workers (CHWs), lay people trained to deliver important public health information to the communities where they live.
