Community Health Worker Registry
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) has defined competencies for unlicensed health navigators and CHWs, as well as created a voluntary Community Health Worker Registry. The registry also lists CDPHE-Recognized Training Programs for navigators to choose from for their training needs. To earn a spot on the registry and qualify for upcoming Medicaid reimbursement, CHWs must take training and pass an assessment to demonstrate their skills. Currently, there is no national certification process for health navigators or CHWs.
The Alliance of Colorado Community Health Workers, Patient Navigators and Promotores de Salud
The Alliance of CHW PN PdS promotes policies, programs, and partnerships that reduce and eliminate barriers to quality health care both within health systems and the community; reduce disparities in health outcomes; and foster ongoing health equity. The Alliance believes that every Coloradan has an equal opportunity to obtain healthcare that personally addresses their medical, mental, emotional, social determinants, and spiritual health needs. The alliance encourages PNs CHWs and PdS from throughout the state to join.
