Health officials and community leaders in Marin City are moving the needle on coronavirus vaccination rates.

Nationwide, there have been reports that Black and Latino communities are hesitant to get the vaccine, but it might just be a matter of providing equitable access and reliable information, said Felecia Gaston, founder of the Performing Stars arts nonprofit.

Gaston said the community has made use of a $20,000 grant provided through the statewide “Together Toward Health” program, which aims to provide information to people who are wary of immunization. The county also provided a $10,000 grant
