Join Us for a Community Health Worker Training

June 10, 2025 ~ Triage Health, a program of Triage Cancer, is providing a free online community health worker training on Wednesday, June 25, 2025. This 4.5-hour virtual training is open to community health workers (CHWs), promotores, patient navigators, and other frontline public health workers who want to build skills and better serve their communities.

Why Provide a Community Health Worker Training?

Community Health Workers are vital members of the communities they serve. Specifically, they often act as a bridge between individuals and the health care system—especially in underserved areas where access to doctors and hospitals can be limited.

According to the National Institutes of Health, “CHWs offer interpretation and translation services, provide culturally appropriate health education and information, help people get the care they need, give informal counseling and guidance on health behaviors, [and] advocate for individual and community health needs.”

By providing a free training, we aim to strengthen the support systems already in place and empower CHWs to navigate today’s ever-changing health care, insurance, and legal landscapes.

What Will You Learn in the Training?

This free CHW training is designed to give participants practical tools. In particular, to help people manage their health and financial well-being. Key topics include:

  • Tips for choosing and using health insurance
  • Taking time off to access health care
  • Accessing disability insurance
  • Strategies to manage medical bills

Whether you're just starting as a CHW or have years of experience, this training will help you stay informed, confident, and better prepared to support your community.
