Overview

Mission

The South Carolina community health worker association is made up of community health workers (chws) and supporters who are building a healthier South Carolina through the promotion of education, networking and advocacy for the community health worker profession. The association provides a forum for networking, sharing of strategies and resources and provides a foundation for education of chws and the organizations and systems that support them.

What it reported doing in 2024

Promote uniform standards and requirements for the training, certification and continuing education of chws and chw instructors in South Carolina. Educate those working in the health and social service sectors about the role, scope of services, evidence of success and best practices related to chws.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
