Community Health Workers serve as frontline public health workers acting as a trusted bridge between systems

CHWs; and provide an opportunity for networking among CHWs, CHW supervisors, CHW employers, and CHW
allies. Breakout sessions will fall into three tracks: Skills for CHW Toolbox, CHW Supervision and Employment, and
Structural and Social Drivers of Health.
Target Audience
The target audience will include Community Health Workers and other healthcare professionals.
Objectives
Upon completion of this conference, participants will be able to:

Shopping for a special gift, we have vendors for that, and if you’re hungry there is all kind of good food to be found! Be sure to find your favorite classic car at the car show! You’ll find your sweet potato goods on Yam Row. Our budget friendly KidZone is always a crowd pleaser. Be sure to find yourself a good seat at the Ritz Plaza for live entertainment throughout the day!!!
