Partnership With Native Americans / Remember Native Americans
Being an advocate is key for those who serve as a Community Health Representative (CHR). The CHRs dedicate themselves to providing the best healthcare education to members in their own community. They are typically from the community in which they are working. They have vast knowledge on healthcare, but crucial to helping people within the community, they also have traditional and tribal knowledge.
The efforts of CHRs have helped lower the mortality rates in tribal communities. To learn more, visit PWNA's Southwest Indian Relief Council (SWIRC) program at: www.swirc.org. To help support CHR visits and provide critical supplies, personal care items, and other urgently needed services., donate at http://www.nativepartnership.org/site....

Across the country, community health workers have become trusted messengers on the front lines of strong primary care systems, accompanying patients, helping manage care, and coordinating with health centers and hospitals. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, this workforce has ensured people have the social and material support they need to stay safe, while also building trust in the vaccines.
PIH, alongside community health workers, advocates, and policy experts, will lead a dialogue speaking to the essential role of this community-based workforce. We'll examine how community health workers bolster overstretched public health systems and call for national investments in these roles.
In this video I discuss addressing the social and community context of returning citizens. I talk about the role that peer support and peer mentoring plays in successful reentry and decreasing recidivism.
More videos to come on addressing the SDoH of returning citizens. It's time. It's been time and I am here for the ride!!!
