2024 World Health Day

This weekend, April 7, we recognize World Health Day and the impact health has on human rights, equity, and empowerment. Our community health worker colleagues recognize the importance of bridging the gap to accessible health care, and in 2023, dedicated 46,876 hours to addressing local health issues! From the start of our organization, we have operated from the grassroots level, meaning every program supported by HealthEd Connect can be tied back to a community, a health concern, and the volunteers who serve there. Community health workers are advocates, helpers, and sources of trusted information to those around them. By working together to tackle health concerns, they empower community members through hope, education, and respect. We are so proud to support the work of our colleagues as they deliver babies, immunize children, visit home-based clients, build new sanitation systems, and serve in clinics and hospitals. We recognize their work on World Health Day!
