Colloboration Between CCHA and CAREĀ
CCHA partners with CARE, the Core for Applied Research and Evaluation, to test diverse CHW models throughout South Carolina, and determine the impacts that CHWs can have, on health outcomes, social determinants of health, healthcare costs, and quality of life. Currently we are launching a two-year pilot study of three to four CHW programs, where we are collecting and analyzing data to determine what outcomes and impact are achieved.
