Leader in Community Health
Caridad Center is a leader in Community Health Worker (CHW) programs in Palm Beach County.
Our CHWs, often bi-lingual and community-based, serve as trusted liaisons, providing essential health and social services to children and families. They enhance screenings, health education, and adherence to professional recommendations, addressing social determinants of health for better outcomes.
With around 60 active CHWs, Caridad Center is a proud member of the Florida Community Health Worker Coalition (FCHWC), advocating for the CHW profession’s advancement. For over 15 years, we’ve trained over 400 CHWs, offering specialized training in chronic disease management, diabetes, skin care, breast health, nutrition, oral health, and more. South Florida’s need for well-trained CHWs drives our commitment to developing robust training programs.
