Here is an excerpt from a new article posted on our website:
Prince George’s County, MD— On January 23, while running for a U.S. Senate seat, County Executive Angela Alsobrooks held a small ceremony acknowledging Latino and African Diaspora Boards’ contributions to the county.
Alsobrooks said that both groups have done much work to reach out to community residents. In a speech, she took time to emphasize the work that the groups did during the early years of the pandemic. She thanked the Office of Multicultural Affairs for its work on community engagement during that time.
“So many of you were on the frontline of the fight against [Covid-19], said Alsobrooks of the various African communities. “Your advocacy helped us to create an African diaspora Covid-19 Vaccination Workgroup to help develop culturally tailored health education initiatives. And we established partnerships with African immigrants and faith-based community organizations to enhance government services.”
