June is Immigrant Heritage Month! This is a time to celebrate all the ways that immigrants give to and share in our communities. At the Alliance, we are committed to cultural competence to ensure that members of diverse cultures and backgrounds can access the quality care they need. Here is how we are promoting and improving cultural competence among our staff: Staff training and education. We offer comprehensive training programs that cover various aspects of cultural competence, including workshops, seminars and online courses. Culturally diverse workforce. We strive to build a workforce that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve. Language services. Our Cultural & Linguistic Services Program provides language services, including interpretation and translation, to ensure that language barriers do not impede access to care. Together, we can continue to build a health care system that recognizes and values the rich tapestry of cultures that make up our community. #healthycommunities #managedcare #culture

The Merced County Office of Education is one of our Equity Learning for Health Professionals grant recipients. They are using their grant funding to hold a 48-hour training series called How the Physiology of Generational & Historical Trauma Impacts Equity. "Our goal with this grant from the Alliance is to give health professionals in Merced County the knowledge and ability to promote diversity and inclusion in their workplaces, communicate in a culturally competent manner with Medi-Cal members and other clients, and create internal policies at their clinics that promote equity," said Dennis Haines, County Office of Education’s Family Resource Center.
