Equipping Community Health Workers to Address Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias in Their Communities

Organization: ASSOCIATION OF STATE AND TERRITORIAL HEALTH OFFICIALS (ASTHO)

Community health workers (CHWs) — or promotoras de salud, health promoters, community health advisors, or community health representatives — are “frontline public health professionals that share life experience, trust, compassion, and cultural and value alignment with the communities where they live and serve.” The goal of this e-learning course is to leverage the robust knowledge, skills, and expertise that CHWs already have and apply these to support brain health and address Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) in their communities.
