Compendium of State-Sponsored National CLAS Standards Implementation Activities

Think Cultural Health LogoNew Report: Compendium of State-Sponsored National CLAS Standards Implementation Activities

The Department of Health and Human Services Office of Minority Health is pleased to announce the release of the first compendium of state-based activities to implement the National Standards for culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services in Health and Health Care (National CLAS Standards).

The Compendium of State-Sponsored National CLAS Standards Implementation Activities and a new Tracking CLAS tool are now available at the Think Cultural Health website.

The National CLAS Standards are intended to advance health equity, improve quality, and help eliminate health care disparities by providing a blueprint for individuals and health and health care organizations to implement culturally and linguistically appropriate services.
The new Compendium and Tracking CLAS tool can help you find out more about what your state and others are doing to provide cultural and linguistically appropriate services to the communities they serve.

Find out more about the National CLAS Standards.
