Remote Community Health Worker

Overview

Why Join Us?

Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of underserved communities? Do you want a career where your work contributes to real change, improves access to care, and supports health equity?

We are looking for empathetic, community-connected individuals to join our remote team as Community Health Workers (CHWs). This is your opportunity to work from home, gain professional experience in public health, and be part of a mission-driven team that truly cares.

Whether you’re early in your career or bringing years of lived or professional experience—we welcome diverse backgrounds and voices. Your connection to the community is your greatest qualification.

✅ What You’ll Do
As a CHW, you’ll be a trusted connector between our programs and the people who need them most. You will:

Engage individuals through phone, virtual meetings, and occasional field outreach (community events, partner sites).
Provide culturally sensitive health education on chronic conditions, mental health, prevention, and nutrition.
Help community members navigate healthcare systems, schedule appointments, access insurance, and complete forms.
Advocate for client needs with providers, agencies, and social service organizations.
Collaborate with local partners to organize outreach, support groups, and educational events.
Track client progress and maintain accurate records using secure data systems.
Offer informal coaching and emotional support using active listening and motivational strategies.

🧠 Who You Are
You don’t need a medical degree—just a heart for service, strong communication skills, and a connection to your community.

Minimum Requirements:

High school diploma or GED
CHW certification or willingness to complete a training program (state-specific)
Familiarity with the cultural, linguistic, and social dynamics of the communities you’ll support
Basic computer skills (Google Docs, Zoom, data entry)

Preferred:

Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Public Health, Social Work, or related field
