Maintaining a learning community
![Page 11: Training Community Health Workers. Davi… · INTEGRATING COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS WITHIN AFFORDABLE CARE ACT IMPLEMENTATION. NYU SCHOOL OF MEDICINE . NEW YORK, NY . Training Community](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022043000/5f76f423ccc80b2335364773/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Challenges
Long term sustainability
Varying levels of computer literacy & the use of social media tools
Community perception of CHWs
![Page 12: Training Community Health Workers. Davi… · INTEGRATING COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS WITHIN AFFORDABLE CARE ACT IMPLEMENTATION. NYU SCHOOL OF MEDICINE . NEW YORK, NY . Training Community](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022043000/5f76f423ccc80b2335364773/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Implications within ACA
ACA provides opportunities to sustain CHW workforce (i.e. all Alliance partners applied/will apply for Navigator/IPA funding for Health Benefit Exchange)
Local, regional, national CHW networks mobilize and strengthen capacity of CHW workforce = critical partners for ACA implementation
The learning community created by CHW networks further strengthens CHW workforce as CHW roles expand within ACA (can take form of train-the-trainer and cost-effective multimedia modes of training/support/mentorship)
