Community Health

Columbia Basin College ETPL
CBC’s Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) in Community Health program prepares graduate for work in community health and related fields. Community health workers are frontline public health workers who are trusted members of and/or have an unusually close understanding of the community served. Community health workers have gained the attention of policy makers and healthcare providers because of their unique competence in not only understanding community needs but also gaining trust in ways that the traditional healthcare workforce may not. These attributes enable community health workers to address the social determinants of health where the healthcare system may fall short due to lack of time, skills, cultural affinity, and community linkages.
