Authors: El Sol Neighborhood Educational Center
Through this case study of a CHW/P training program in southern California i.e., the El Sol CHW/P Training Center, it sought to build the capacity of organizations to expand their community
transformation role as they integrate CHWs/Ps into their operations and mitigate the threat of CHW/P co-optation. It explains how a community-based CHW/P training center applied popular education throughout the CHW/P capacity-building process in order to advance and maintain the roots of the CHW/P movement. By describing the interrelated components of El Sol CHW/P TC theory of change and explaining the application of this guiding principle, this case study generates implications for organizations that aim to integrate CHWs/Ps into their operations.
