Summary

Findings from the CHWA statewide assessment and technical consultation meetings provide a credible evidence base to inform the design of strategies that strengthen the engagement of CHWs in team-based care; assist with the design of technical assistance for safety net organizations; to build technical and analytical capacity; and serve as a resource for the development of public policies to scale and sustain the engagement of CHWs.
