Abstract
This report highlights the efforts of six community-based organizations (CBOs) implementing community-clinical linkages (CCLs) to identify individuals with hypertension in underserved populations and connect them to community health centers (CHCs) participating in the National Hypertension Control Initiative. This report emphasizes the importance of understanding the CBOs' capacity to implement CCLs.
