Kentucky’s community health workers (CHW) have connected clinics with communities since 1994. These public health advocates provide access to medical, social and environmental services while striving to overcome health inequities. Laura A. Eirich, M.P.H., manages the Kentucky Office of Community Health Workers. On today’s episode we discuss her educational journey, year of service with AmeriCorps and the CHW program. Whether working with hospitals, non-profits or managed care, CHWs are as exceptional as the communities they serve. Tune in to discover the tremendous impact of CHWs across the state.
