CHWs are vital for universal health coverage (UHC)! Undeniable evidence shows that CHWs deliver primary health care in a way that improves access, increases equity, and saves lives. That’s why at #UNGA78 we’re advocating for professional CHWs (#proCHWs) who are salaried, skilled, supervised, and supplied to be the norm worldwide. Join us as we work towards #healthforall.

These main issues (SDH) can be addressed by Community Health Workers...
PGH Community Health Workers (CHW) work with community members to identify and address Social Determinants of Health. #1 Transportation to Medical Appointments --CHWs address this SDH by providing community members transportation to medical appointments, training them how to use public transportation, and identifying clinics within walking distance of their home. #2 Lack of Healthy Food --CHWs address this SDH by linking community members to food assistance such as SNAP and WIC. #3 Poor Housing Conditions --CHWs address this SDH by assisting community member to discuss resolution of housing issues with their landlords.
People are often curious when I tell them I practice at a free clinic: how is it funded? Who started it? How do the doctors get paid? Then when I tell them there are tens of thousands of clinics like mine all over the country, they are completely shocked. Watch the below to learn more and find out how you can contribute.
Nearly 60 years ago, visionary community activists and reform-minded physicians in the Civil Rights Movement established the first Community Health Centers to fight poverty, advance health equity, and change lives. In the process, they launched a national movement. Today, health centers are the largest primary care network in the United States, serving 31.5 million patients nationwide. A new short video from NACHC recounts the early history of health centers, founded as a bold experiment to bring healthcare to the nation’s overlooked rural and urban communities. #ValueCHCs #HealthEquity
