Our mission: “Empowering the CHW/Promotor(a) profession to build sustainable communities nationwide through intentional education, research, and capacity building"
In 2010, CCHD established the National Community Health Worker Training Center (NCHWTC) in response to partner community needs identified in South Texas. The NCHWTC is a Department of State Health Services certified Community Health Worker (CHW) training center that provides CHW and CHW Instructor certifications and continuing education units in-person and online, in English and Spanish.
