NEW PLATFORM/APP! Introducing the CHW Connector, a social platform where community health workers and networks come together to share information, insights, and resources. CHW Connector is the new social platform for the CHW Community brought to you by NACHW. It is available NOW on Apple App Store, Google Play and on the Web. This tool is born from several years of collaboration with the CHW Community.

Wow! Wow! Wow! the second National CHW Awareness Week has been such a celebration! Across the country in so many communities, people took the time to thank local CHWs, organizations and networks highlighted the CHWs in their communities, state and local officials declared the week, and even celebrities got in on the fun! At the national level, a resolution was introduced in congress to commemorate #NCHWAW. We are so thrilled to see all that has come to fruition this week, and hope that this momentum does not stop. Keep celebrating CHWs and keep advocating for CHWs. Let's all work to respect, protect, and partner with CHWs, because they are the workforce we need, for the world we want. #ValueCHWs #NCHWAW2024

Before we close out the week, we have one more story to share. Meet Stephanie Therrell, another remarkable CHW whose commitment to her community is nothing short of extraordinary. Let’s continue to support and uplift CHWs, not just this week, but every single day. https://lnkd.in/gH8YnB3b
