AHCH provides a distinctive continuum of integrated care through outreach and site-based services to address the health-related causes and consequences of homelessness.

In consultation with clinical providers, Community Health Workers facilitate short-term care coordination and linkage to long-term care services for clients with complex health conditions. Utilizing community-based tools and methods, they assess needs, identify resources, and advocate for systems change with community stakeholders.

    The perfect candidate would have a deep understanding of the population we serve, a passion for individual and community advocacy, experience working with interdisciplinary care teams, and be a highly skilled communicator who will develop quick rapport with our clients.
