Our Bilingual Community Health Workers will work for and in the Hispanic community in Newport, to create and foster access to all of their health needs, including all needs related to COVID-19. They will also build and foster relationships with local health and mental health organizations and entities to aid them in becoming more in-tuned and competent both culturally and linguistically. The work includes the following areas of support:

• Access affordable primary and dental health care.
• Access necessary speciality care.
• Apply for financial health aid and/or health insurance.
• Provide culturally-appropriate health education and health promotion.
• Provide routine disease prevention opportunities such as coordinating our vaccine clinics & healthy lifestyle workshops at our activity center on Broadway.
• Advising our educational partners about how to better their systems to meet the needs of our community.
