FIVE CHWI Grantees
One year after its launch, the Arnold School’s Center for Community Health Alignment has announced the recipients of its first competitive grants program as part of the Center’s Community Health Worker Institute. With funding from the BlueCross® BlueShield® Foundation of South Carolina and The Duke Endowment, the Return on Investment pilot opportunity will enable five organizations from across the state to collect and analyze data pertaining to the community health workers they employ. This data will include financial and other associated outcomes related to upstream prevention activities, social determinants of health, resource navigation, care coordination, health education, and patient engagement that can result from the utilization of the community health worker model.
