Strategic Planning Efforts
Building ICHWA
Community health workers need to unite as an active force for change within the profession and the
health care industry. By creating a stronger community and association, CHWs can
harness the creativity and the energy of workers across the state to benefit both the profession and the patients they serve.
Strategic Planning Efforts
Training & Mentorship
While strong training programs do exist
through Idaho State University, CHWs recognize the opportunity to create additional sustainable training and support for those in the profession.
Strategic Planning Efforts
CHW Network and Communities of Practice
ICHWA is working to foster connection and support among CHW professionals across the state with an emphasis on our rural/frontier communities, we will establish Communities of Practice that includes a robust communication network that will include multiple channels for connection and communication between regions.

Stakeholder Analysis
A crucial step in positively influencing the CHW profession involves pinpointing and understanding key stakeholders who can contribute to our strategic plan's advancement. We are eager and excited to identify these entities as well as nurture existing partnerships.
