The 8th Annual Immigrant/Refugee Conference will focus on the subject of Community Health Workers (CHWs) role in connecting and navigating immigrant patients accessing care. CHWs play a crucial role in connecting immigrants to healthcare services and facilitating their navigation through the healthcare system. CHWs are vital in bridging the gap between immigrant communities and the healthcare system.  Their cultural understanding, language skills, and community ties make them uniquely positioned to connect immigrants with healthcare services, address barriers to access, and promote health equity. By providing education, navigation support, and advocacy, CHWs empower immigrants to take control of their health and well-being.
