Community Health Workers-An overview

by

Authors: Elizabeth (Izzy) Montgomery

These frontline workers are usually from the communities they serve and have the skills to address local health needs. This updated explainer covers the role of CHWs, their training and certification in Arkansas, how their services are covered and reimbursed, and evidence of their effectiveness.
