Meet our summer intern!
Emma is a second-year medical student at Kansas City University with an interest in improving healthcare access and equity.

She is working with out CHW program to evaluate the impact of the Community Health Worker program.

Say hello to Emma!

A group from our team went to Philadelphia, PA for one of our favorite conferences:
This was a chance for us to network, learn, and grow from other individuals and organizations who are doing boots on the ground work in organizing for a more equitable and just world.

We also had a wonderful time exploring the rich culture of Philadelphia!

Happy Pride!
Everyone deserves equitable and affirming healthcare! Everyone deserves to live healthy and authentic lives without stigma, bias, and barriers!

May is Mental Health Awareness month. We do not have to carry our burdens alone. 💙💚

Social Determinants of Mental Health are shaped by social, economic, and environmental factors. Many common mental health struggles are a result of unfair systems, inequalities, and redlining. CHC works to bridge gaps in care and help everyone gain access to the health and mental health care they need.

Here are ways CHC can assist community members on their mental health journey:
💙Connect with our Community Health Workers! Our CHWs can assist with getting connected to mental health services. visit wycohealth.com/gethelp
💚Join Fathers United - a peer support group to educate, support, and empower fathers in their journey through fatherhood.
💙Follow WyCo Mutual Aid and attend a community event centered around joy and togetherness.
