CEAL Educational Videos

NIH's Community Engagement Alliance (CEAL) Against COVID-19 Disparities program focuses on addressing misinformation around COVID-19, engaging trusted partners and messengers in the delivery of accurate information and educating communities on the importance of inclusion in clinical research to overcome COVID-19, and most importantly, health disparities.

This is especially important for people unduly burdened by COVID-19 such as African Americans, Hispanics/Latinos and American Indians/Alaska Natives, who account for over half of all reported cases in the United States. Learn more about CEAL at https://covid19community.nih.gov/.
