Introduced Text

Recognizes August 25-29, 2025, as South Carolina Community Health Worker Awareness Week.

This resolution recognizes August 25-29, 2025, as South Carolina Community Health Worker Awareness Week. It acknowledges the contributions of Community Health Workers (CHWs) in improving service access, quality, and cultural humility. CHWs support individuals and communities by amplifying their needs and helping them navigate systems. They are employed across sectors, including in rural and urban areas, health centers, and social service agencies. A recent study shows that for every dollar invested in CHWs, South Carolina sees an over four-dollar return on investment.
