What is REACH?
REACH is a U.S Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) funded program to reduce racial
and ethnic health disparities or gaps. REACH stands for Racial and Ethnic Approaches to Community
Health and funds communities to carry out proven strategies to help improve health, prevent chronic
diseases, and reduce health inequities. across the U.S. The CDC has funded the REACH program for
25 years and Boston has a few REACH grants over the years.
Boston REACH: In September 2023, Boston received a 5-year REACH grant to work on policy,
systems and environmental change strategies in Boston that will influence healthy eating, physical
activity, early care and education and adult immunizations. The priority neighborhoods for this year’s
project are East Boston and Mattapan. Some of the strategies will focus on city-wide policies/systems,
and some will be neighborhood specific.

Workplan Strategies
Nou pran angajman pou bati bon relasyon ak kominote a epi kolabore ak patnè yo pou kreye yon Mattapan kap pwospere ak an sante ki baze sou entegrite ak konfyans.
Etid Katye Sante
Se rezidan lokal yo, òganizasyon defans de baz yo, Fondasyon Lwa Konsèvasyon, Depatman Etid ak Planifikasyon Iben MIT, Depatman Sante Piblik Massachusetts, ak Konsèy Planifikasyon Zòn Metwopoliten an ki dirije etid Healthy Neighborhood la. Yo te devlope yon sondaj ak yon ekip chèchè rezidan (manm kominote a) epi yo te itilize pou detèmine sa ki pi enpòtan pou rezidan yo lè li rive pou konstwi katye ki an sante. Done sondaj la montre kijan devlopman rapid kominote yo afekte rezidan ki egziste nan katye a.
