What are Community Health Workers? Community Health Workers are individuals who, as community representatives, advocate for individuals and groups in the community by assisting them in accessing community health and supportive resources through the provision of education, role modeling, outreach, home visits and referral services. The Community Health Worker
Model empowers communities to eliminate disparities by employing professional Community Health
Workers to provide a comprehensive link to community resources through family-based services focusing on
success in health, education and
self-sufficiency. |
