The National Resource Center for Refugees, Immigrants, and Migrants (NRC-RIM) is a resource center coordinated by the University of Minnesota. It provides support to health departments and community organizations working with refugee, immigrant, and migrant communities that have been disproportionately affected by COVID -19. NRC-RIM’s “Vaccine Central” page provides a number of resources for COVID-19 vaccine outreach focused on refugees, immigrants, and migrant communities, including toolkits, conversation guides, and translation resources. Incorporating COVID-19 vaccine education information into open enrollment activities could be an effective public health strategy.
