Open Call: NACHW Ambassadors | Milwaukee Neighborhood News Service
National Association of Community Health Workers
February 20, 2019
The National Association of Community Health Workers (NACHW) is seeking interested CHWs to become NACHW Ambassadors. We are seeking a total of 20 CHWs to serve in this capacity. In order to maximize our reach, only one CHW will be selected from any given state. Ambassadors will act as liaisons between NACHW and local, state and regional CHW networks and associations. This is a one-year commitment. Ambassadors will receive training during the Unity 2019 Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada (April 14-17, 2019) which will provide them with the information and skills needed to be successful in their commitment as an Ambassador.
Those selected to become Ambassadors will receive the following support:
CHWs will be reimbursed after submitting expense documentation, including original receipts and proof of payment. CHWs who have already registered and paid for the conference will be reimbursed the early bird registration fee.
