New York Times Feature.

The Coalition recently contributed to a New York Times feature on community health workers (CHWs), their vital role in achieving health for all, and what they need to succeed: salaries, skills, supervision, and supplies.

“If you can pay a doctor for saving a life, you can pay me.”
Margaret Odera, CHW Organizer and Advocate

“You’re left with this: Either community health workers experience grotesque exploitation, given the number of hours and the complexity of tasks they are undertaking relative to their meager wage, or no wage — or, people are not getting health care.”
Dr. Madeleine Ballard, CEO, CHIC
