Community Health Worker
Community Health Workers act as intermediaries between their clients and health care and social services. They identify health-related issues, collect data, and discuss clients' health concerns within the community. For example, community health workers might identify barriers preventing clients from access to transportation and provide referrals to resources that provide it.
