Community Health Worker Training Program

Community Health Worker Training Program

The Community Health Worker Training Program is working to expand the number of Community Health Workers (CHWs) and equip them with the necessary skills needed to provide effective community outreach. This program is available both to individuals and to Louisiana's Community Health Centers to strengthen the connection between CHCs and the communities they serve, to empower individuals with health education, and to increase access to primary and preventative health care and social services.
