Abstract

Community health workers (CHWs) are an integral part of the health care and public health system. CHW programs are known for their significant outcomes and impacts on health disparities, yet we rarely learn about the experiences of CHWs. This project highlights CHWs' work and importance in public health through digital storytelling videos. Four CHWs from Colorado were featured to share their experiences and perspectives as a CHW. Digital storytelling can be an effective tool for advocating and raising awareness of the CHW workforce to inspire health care workers, influence policy changes, and dismantle systemic barriers.
