Our Impact
Serving Our Communities

More than 200,000 individuals reached and 25,000 served through our health outcome programs.
Our CHW-led programs have demonstrated a positive return-on-investment (ROI) of $1.09-3.16 for every $1 invested.
Nearly 2 out of every 3 participants served by a CHW report at least one Social Determinant of Health need such as assistance with food, housing, and transportation being met.
In Texas, which holds the highest uninsured rate in the nation, over 5000 individuals, as of 2017, have been enrolled in a Qualified Health Plan through our Navigator program.
Individuals who received health education and support from CHWs doubled the amount of daily physical activity, consumption of fruits and vegetables; and significantly decreased consumption of saturated fats and sodium.*
