We are so proud of our Community Health Workers; Madison Frank, Tessa Murray and Dianne Holt.
COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKER DAY CELEBRATION 💙
Yesterday, June 5th, many of our Bridges to Wellness Community Health Workers gathered together at the beautiful Sunday Studio here New Philadelphia to celebrate Community Health Worker Day and honor the incredible impact these dedicated individuals make in our communities every day.
Governor Mike DeWine has officially proclaimed June 6th as Community Health Worker Day in Ohio, recognizing the vital role Community Health Workers play in increasing health equity, reducing health disparities, lowering preventable death rates, and bridging the gap between vulnerable, low-income, minority, and underserved populations and the healthcare system.
We were thrilled to have many of our Community Health Workers representing over our 11-county service area join us for a day dedicated entirely to self-care, connection, and appreciation. More details to come about the amazing day, and what we did to celebrate!
Community Health Workers spend their days supporting others—connecting individuals to resources, advocating for those in need, providing education, and helping community members navigate complex systems. Their compassion, dedication, and commitment make a lasting difference in the lives of countless individuals and families.
This annual celebration is one of our favorite traditions because it allows us to pause and recognize the extraordinary work our CHWs do every day. While they are often the ones encouraging others to prioritize their health and well-being, this special day gives us the opportunity to focus on them and show our appreciation for all they contribute.
To all of our Bridges to Wellness Community Health Workers: Thank you for your unwavering dedication, your servant hearts, and your commitment to improving the health and well-being of our communities. We are proud to celebrate you today and every day!
Happy Community Health Worker Day! 💙✨
