Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPIs) represent less than 5% of the total US population, but they account for 50% of nearly one million Americans living with chronic Hepatitis B.
Our accomplishments since 2006
- HBI-DC uses culturally and linguistically appropriate outreach and education materials.
- We reach and educate our target audience through ethnic media, such as TV, radio, newspapers, and social media.
- HBI-DC provides free screening events in the District of Columbia, Virginia, and Maryland.
- We have also implemented a free hybrid screening model online via Telehealth.
- Through screenings and tests, HBI-DC identifies patients needing vaccines and then provides resources on the importance of vaccination.
- We have partnered with local pharmacies, clinics, and physician networks to provide free or low-cost vaccines.
- HBI-DC provides linkage to care and patient navigation services in multiple languages.
- We assist in the procurement of treatment services and drug assistance programs.
- HBI-DC creates public-private partnerships among community-based organizations (CBOs), faith-based (FBOs), medical associations, clinics, hospitals, and health departments.
- We work with trusted leaders and physicians from the Asian and Pacific Islander and African communities and continue to reach new ethnic groups each year.
- Through collaborative partnerships, HBI-DC participates in over 50 community events (health fairs, walks, health days at places of worship, designated screening events) annually.
