What Is The Pathways HUB?

A community health worker, or CHW, will partner with you in reaching your goals through referrals, education, and support.

Our Purpose

Our Vision

To help cultivate an environment in which everyone can attain optimal health.

What Is A Community Health Worker?

A CHW is a trusted front line professional that promotes wellness by helping people adopt healthy behaviors. They implement programs and advocate for people who may have limited access to health resources and social services.

Community health workers act as a navigator between their clients and providers of healthcare and social services. They identify health-related issues, collect data, and discuss clients’ health concerns within the community. For example, community health workers might identify barriers preventing clients from access to transportation and provide referrals to resources that provide it.

Ideally, these workers have close ties to the communities they serve so that they understand their clients’ unique needs. They share that information with providers of healthcare and social services for determining appropriate programs and care. They also advocate for community wellness needs and conduct outreach to engage clients, assist with navigating healthcare, and improve coordination of care.
