Video transcript Spanish-language

About Community Health Champions

The Central Health Community Health Champions program brings together diverse community members from across Travis County to learn about, discuss, and collaborate on our work to improve the health of Central Texas. Through this 5-month program, we want to create the next generation of informed community health leaders in Travis County. Topics covered throughout the program revolve around various health disparities and how Central Health and about 200 health organizations, nonprofits, and hospitals come together to address them. So far, the program has created a tight-knit group of about 150 Community Health Champions.

Time Commitment and Schedule

Community Health Champions meet once a month from August-December to discuss a variety of topics related to the health care system in Travis County.

Members must commit to participate in a 2-day Health Equity Training and as well as attend at least 4 of the 5 workshops in order to receive a certificate of completion.
