"Community health workers are #1 to meet the person in the community," says quality assurance officer Joycelyn Suale, who ensures Sierra Leone's #proCHWs are #SafeSupportedHealthWorkers. "But they have supervisors to guide them & we support them." bit.ly/3ZPMBNP #WHWWeek

Shortcomings in community health programs result in CHWs being absent, ill-equipped, or facing dangers. And NGOs can face barriers scaling. At the Coalition we’re working together to dismantle these barriers and close the healthcare delivery gap. #proCHWs #healthforall

With Last Mile Health, I've had the privilege of connecting with the CHWs who provide essential care to their neighbors when no one else could. In our annual letter, I'm humbled to lift up the voices of 3 CHWs who deliver healthcare & hope in the face of extraordinary challenges.
