Multicultural Outreach Programs

If you were born in Minnesota, you know the drill. Sirens wail like clockwork each month to test the tornado warning systems, mosquitoes are determined to take a big bite out of our summer fun, and Halloween could dish up a trick-or-treat snow storm. But if you’re not from here, if the climate where you came from never covered you in snow, never blew houses away, never really challenged you...then each season here…each day…could test your survival.

The Twin Cities Red Cross understands this. That’s why we created a one-of-a-kind Multicultural Outreach Program. The goal is to educate ethnic groups new to Minnesota and to reduce health disparities in communities of color and low-income. The Red Cross works to build trust in ethnic communities and prepare new residents for their new life in the Twin Cities.

Let us introduce you to the Twin Cities Red Cross staffers who share life saving messages with the following groups:
