Community Health Workers

Our Community Health Worker (CHW) model takes a holistic approach, addressing the whole person and fostering sustainable community development. CHWs are trained, equipped, supported, and supervised to deliver frontline health services, with 80% being women who conduct proactive door-to-door home visits to identify patients in need. They provide referrals to essential health services and address community health challenges through a six-month training program that equips them with the knowledge and tools necessary to promote disease prevention and development. Each CHW supports approximately 1,000 people, visiting an average of four to five households daily, empowering communities to take control of their health and development.

​

What sets our CHW model apart is its dual focus on physical and spiritual well-being, alongside a participatory approach that emphasizes community ownership. By helping local leaders and communities identify their assets and resources, this model encourages self-reliance and addresses root causes of health issues. Communities are empowered to discuss challenges, explore opportunities for change, and take collective action to improve their health and well-being. This unique blend of empowerment, education, and collaboration ensures long-lasting impact.
