INTRODUCTION Purpose The purpose of this Washington Multicultural Health Communications Directory is to:
• provide information regarding where multicultural communities reside in the state, • identify community-based organizations and other trusted sources that can serve as
information conduits to community members who may be isolated by language or culture, and
• assist in defining specific and cultural linguistic needs of communities throughout Washington State
Background The Council developed this directory of community contacts and other information related to the cultural and linguistic needs of communities by working with its partners in the Multicultural Health Communications Interagency Workgroup. The Council believes that eliminating health disparities for women and people of color in Washington State will require increased awareness of health equity issues among affected populations. The Council is committed to reaching affected communities with targeted, effective, and culturally appropriate health messages. The Council recognizes communicating with diverse communities—including those who may not speak English, may have limited English proficiency, and may not be acculturated—is a complex and difficult task. This directory is the first activity towards improving the capacity of the Council and its partners to: (1) let communities know that the Council exists, (2) share information about the Council’s work, including its main responsibility to develop an action plan to eliminate health disparities, (3) inform communities about the Council’s public meetings and other opportunities that are available for them to participate in, (4) request active involvement and input from communities to help shape the Council’s work products and recommendations, and (5) provide information about health disparities in order to increase awareness about the differences in health status among different racial/ethnic groups. With assistance from the interagency workgroup, the Council will explore possible collaborative strategies for ensuring the directory’s ongoing maintenance and sustainability and to make recommendations as part of the multicultural health communication improvement plan. Methods The information provided in this directory is an inventory of public data. Entities listed did not provide information. Council staff collected information through internet search and community outreach activities. The information presented here may be used in the future to develop an on-line searchable database of multicultural health communication channels. If you know an organization that serves as a unique communication channel for a multicultural community, please contact Council staff. They are interested in building an inclusive and current database. If you know of changes, additions, or deletions to a particular listing, please contact Council staff.

Real Change is Seattle's weekly activist publication sold by Seattle's homeless. Real Change is a hand up, not a handout. Our publication strives to create fairness, opportunity and community by covering issues that socially conscious people want to know about, from topics surrounding poor and homelessness, to stories about labor, the environment, public health and civil liberties (to name a few). After ten years, Real Change News went weekly (from bimonthly) in Feb. 2005, and carries a paid circulation of 12,000 per issue. Our vendors pay 35 cents a copy for their papers, which are then sold on the street for a dollar donation.
