Supporting National Community Health Worker Awareness Week 2025

The US Senate supports designating August 25-29, 2025, as the third annual National Community Health Worker Awareness Week. Community Health Workers (CHWs) are frontline professionals who help citizens, especially in underserved areas, navigate health and social services, providing education, advocacy, and basic screenings. This resolution aims to raise awareness of this crucial workforce, potentially leading to better coordinated care and healthier communities.
Key points
The resolution highlights the vital role of CHWs in connecting citizens to necessary health and social services.
CHWs act as trusted liaisons, offering culturally appropriate health education, social support, and basic screenings (like blood pressure checks).
Increased recognition and support for CHWs can improve the quality and accessibility of healthcare, particularly for vulnerable populations.
