Measuring the Collective Community Capacity of a Network to Address Health Inequities during a Public Health Emergency: Findings from the National COVID-19 Resiliency Network.

Objective: This study assesses the collective community capacity of the National COVID-19 Resiliency Network (NCRN), a multisectoral network mitigating the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on minoritized populations.

Methods: From January to April 2022, we used two concurrent data collection methods: a Collective Community Capacity (C3) survey (n=65) and key informant interviews (KIIs) (n=26). The C3 assessed capacity for creation of a shared vision, engagement in community change, and distributive leadership.

Objective: To examine the association between county-level Black-White residential segregation and COVID-19 vaccination rates.

Design: Observational cross-sectional study using multivariable generalized linear models with state fixed effects to estimate the average marginal effects of segregation on vaccination rates.

Setting: National analysis of county-level vaccination rates.
