Defining the role of the community health worker within a federal healthy start care coordination team.
The Strong Beginnings program worked to define community health worker (CHW) interventions, a core service of the program to improve maternal and child health. The workgroup identified seven core functions and 28 maternal and child health risk topics to be addressed by the CHW. The process resulted in a detailed document of program interventions that the CHWs use to guide care.
