MCHIP Launches Collaborative Document for Community Health Worker Programs at Scale, December 2013.
MCHIP is pleased to post for public comment its collaborative document for community health worker (CHW) programs at scale. This document, “Developing and Strengthening Community Health Worker Programs at Scale: A Reference Guide for Program Managers and Policy Makers,” is an in-depth review of issues and questions that should be considered when addressing key issues relevant for large-scale CHW program.
Rather than being an instructional manual, the Reference Guide is meant to provide a framework for those in leadership positions in-country as they consider how to develop, expand, and strengthen their CHW program. It is our intention to make this a “living document” that will be revised periodically as the experience and evidence grows in this rapidly expanding activity. The Reference Guide has been developed in parallel with the URC/Project ASSIST CHW Decision-Making Support Tool, which is also in the process of being released.
