Community Health Worker Trainings |
CCHD has been involved in developing and offering community health worker (CHW) trainings since 2004. In April 2009, Julie St. John became a DSHS certified CHW instructor. In July 2010, CCHD received certified from the Texas Department of State Health Services as a certified institution to offer CEUs for Community Health Workers. CCHD STX partners with the South Texas Promotora Association and other partners to provide numerous CHW trainings. Trainings and training materials are available in Spanish and English and include: agendas, lesson plans, handouts, activities, and module evaluation forms. Trainings are provided several times a year and also upon requests. The next CCHD training will be provided during the Border Binanational Health Week, Binational Promotora Conference.
