ABSTRACT
Objective. The Healthy Aging Partnerships in Prevention
Initiative (HAPPI) aims to increase the use of clinical
preventive services (CPS) among underserved Latinos and
African Americans in South Los Angeles who are 50+ years
old.
Materials and methods. HAPPI uses an evidencebased
model, SPARC, to leverage existing resources and link
community resources. HAPPI’s multi-sectoral partnerships
include local non-governmental organizations (NGOs),
community health centers (CHCs), aging and public health
agencies serving the City and County of Los Angeles, and a
university. Activities include CHC capacity assessment and
training, and community capacity-building that included a
small grants program.
Results. We engaged five CHCs in
quality improvement activities and eight NGOs in networking
and programming to increase awareness and receipt of CPS.
We discuss barriers and facilitators including the success
of trainings conducted with CHC providers and NGO representatives.
Conclusion. Multi-sectoral collaborations
hold promise for increasing awareness and use of CPS in
underserved communities.
