Vaccine Efforts in our Rural Communities |

Commissioner Holguin continues to ensure that vaccines are available to residents of Far East El Paso and the Mission Valley. Transportation to the City of El Paso should not be an obstacle to obtaining a vaccine. This past month, vaccination events were held in Ysleta, San Elizario, and Fabens! Thank you to all of the community partners that make these events possible: University Medical Center, Center for Employment Training, Exit 49, Familias Triunfadoras, UTEP, Texas Tech, ESD #2, Constables Ugarte, Garcia and Aguilar, and the Texas Department of State Health Services. Thank you!

It was an honor to participate in the tree-planting ceremony in memory of the victims of the August 3, 2019 tragedy at El Paso County's Healing Garden located inside of Ascarate Park.
