Past Programs

Zee Turner Center in Action

The Zee Turner Center has a diverse portfolio of community health worker (CHW) programs and initiatives. Since 2013, the most impactful programs have covered topics such as heart failure, HIV medical care, COVID-19 response and recovery, CHW training, and more. Our extensive experience and success have made us a notable resource for regional programs and organizations.

When effectively designed and implemented, CHW programs are important aspects of community-based public health and healthcare systems. The Zee Turner Center is engaged in creating an equitable, scalable, and adaptive range of activities, including:
