Central Health board considers improvements to reaching target communities - Austin Monitor

The team's work is concentrated in five communities: Central East Austin, North Travis County, Dove Springs/Montopolis, Rundberg/St. John's, and Colony Park/Manor.

Over the past year, it produced 458 active engagements with target populations through a variety of in-person and online events.

That work, including more than doubling the number of assistance locations, is believed to have contributed to a 201 percent increase in Medical Access Program applications.

Board Member Shannon Jones emphasized the need for improved outreach in areas like Northeast Colony Park and Manor, acknowledging the organization's success and challenges.
