The US Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Minority Health is seeking public input from individuals and professional communities across the country for the CLAS (Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services) Standards Enhancement Initiative. This initiative is an effort to make enhancements to the National Standards for CLAS in Health Care, first released in 2000. The goal of the enhancement process is to maximize access in gathering public input and stakeholder dialogue to ensure that the CLAS Standards serve the health needs of everyone.
