Over 110 Community Health Workers (CHWs) in ten organizations are now available to help Monterey County residents navigate COVID-19 Resources where they live, eat, play, work and worship.

Thanks to a $4.9 million program funded by the County of Monterey in partnership with the Community Foundation for Monterey County (CFMC), CHW’s are trained and equipped to deliver information about the importance of COVID-19 testing and vaccinations and assist community members with access to resources.
