Dear<strong><span style="font-family:Roboto"> </span></strong>Jennifer;<br>
<br>
As the United States experiences a surge in COVID-19 cases, there is an urgent need to increase vaccination rates. The <em><span style="font-family:Roboto">Communities for Immunity
</span></em>project is calling on libraries and museums throughout the nation to help create and deliver evidence-driven resources, programs, and approaches to address vaccine concerns in a respectful and factual manner.<br>
<br>
Museums and libraries are uniquely positioned to help address vaccine hesitancy because they are among the most trusted sources of information in the United States. This is especially true of tribal libraries and museums which ensure the cultural continuity
 of the communities they serve.<br>
<br>
<em><b><span style="font-family:Roboto">Communities for Immunity</span></b></em> is coordinated by the<strong><span style="font-family:Roboto"> Association of Science and Technology Centers</span></strong> and the
<strong><span style="font-family:Roboto">American Alliance of Museum</span></strong>. The
<strong><span style="font-family:Roboto">Association of Tribal Archives, Libraries, and Museums</span></strong> is coordinating outreach to Native Nations.  Funding and support are provided by the<strong><span style="font-family:Roboto"> U.S. Centers for Disease
 Control</span></strong>, the <strong><span style="font-family:Roboto">Institute of Museum and Library Services</span></strong>, and the
<strong><span style="font-family:Roboto">Network of the National Library of Medicine</span></strong>. <br>
<br>
To support the efforts of libraries and museums, funding is available. The first round of applications are due on September 2, with announcements made by September 16. <br>
 <br>
For more information about applying for funding or to access fact-based resources on COVID-19 and vaccines, please visit
