St. Louis CHWs for Regional COVID Response and Resilient Communities - Project Abstract The St. Louis County Department of Public Health proposes a Component B+C project that leverages the capacity, networks and engagement of Community Health Workers, anchor institutions, community-based organizations and resident leaders to deepen authentic community engagement, advocate for structural change, enhance and sustain partnerships, and build a collaborative movement to bolster the power and impact of Community Health Workers (CHWs) in St. Louis County, Missouri and the City of St. Louis (its own county equivalent). As a result of the drastic impacts of COVID-19 in our region, disparities among the African American community have been exacerbated and deeply highlighted, resulting in the need for a shift in infrastructure towards a more cohesive response effort. The St. Louis County Department of Health (STLCO DPH) seeks to galvanize a multitude of organizations within the fragmented St. Louis region that are already engaged in the healthcare space (public and private sectors), increasing access to quality healthcare through the engagement of Community Health Workers (CHWs). STLCO DPH is building upon the community health worker driven work that they have been providing for more than 20 years through a variety of mechanisms including contact tracing, public health nurses, health education coordinators, etc. As a member of the Integrated Health Network, STLCO DPH has been part of the team devoted to establishing the CHW Coalition and have supported their efforts to increase the CHW presence and ensure adequate training to build capacity for CHWs. COMPONENT B Centering the voice of the CHW Coalition which has been in existence for 3 years, STLCO DPH seeks to deepen not only their efforts, but also that of the other partner organizations with an emphasis on capacity building for CHWs across the region. This proposal will focus on several components: hiring additional CHWs and ensuring that they receive the proper pay and are credentialed, providing training for CHWs & Employers, engaging policy makers to effect systems level change, supporting the 2 satellite hubs (1 in the City and 1 in the County) that provide support to community members in need after traditional working hours), working with employers to ensure that they understand and value the role of the CHW, providing 1 year of health communications through a health series designed to address a variety of issues plaguing this disparate communities who have been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19, enhancing the CHW infrastructure by ensuring that regional organizations align with CHW Coalition standards for CHWs (e.g., credentialing, equitable/livable pay) which have been established based on best practices. COMPONENT C The focus for this component will be in the following areas: Community interventions intending to reduce toxic and chronic stress, strategies that enhance community resilience. Establishing a CHW High School Apprenticeship Career Pipeline; Identifying and approach that employs policy, systems or environmental changes, is innovative and will train, deploy, and engage CHWs to further address health disparities and social inequities exacerbated by COVID-19 within the catchment area; Identifying and implementing strategies that address reimbursement or other sustainable funding; and Engaging employers in identifying and adopting policies that protect worker health and safety.
