Events
ILCHWA events are designed to support and empower our membership by creating opportunities to learn, collaborate, network, and strengthen the impact of community-based care. Through trainings, workshops, networking sessions, and community discussions, we focus on sharing practical tools, best practices, and resources that help CHWs better serve the communities they support. These events also provide a space to connect with peers, build partnerships, and stay informed about important developments in public and community health. Check back regularly for upcoming events and opportunities to grow, engage, and make a greater difference in the communities we serve.
