Description: The curriculum is designed to train front-line health workers to provide culturally responsive services in Michigan communities. Each of the 8 core competencies are presented in modules that promote the development of skills needed to become gainfully employed as a community health worker and to enhance the knowledge base of those already employed. The internship consists of field experiences in local agencies where the focus is for the student to apply and integrate their course work into practice. CHWS who are currently employed will complete the internship at their place of work.
