In June, our co-founder, Kristi Mitchell attended the Boston Globe’s Health Equity Day 2024, where she participated in a panel discussing advancing health equity through community health workers. Following the panel, Kristi posted her thoughts on LinkedIn:

“The value of engaging with community health workers is not new, but the need to find sustainable funding models to fully integrate them into healthcare is. Robust clinical and economic data is fundamental to making the business case for policy makers to fully commit to investing. Therefore, the need to bolster the rigor of CHW-led intervention programs will be critical. We’ve got the will, but now we need the financial commitment to ensuring that this happens.”
