🎉 Day 6: TODAY is Community Health Worker Advocacy Day! 🎉

Today, we honor the heart, the hustle, and the voice of Community Health Workers and Instructors across Texas. ❤️🤠

This official proclamation recognizes what we already know—CHWs are essential advocates. You stand in the gap, speak up for those who are often unheard, and fight every day for access, equity, and dignity in healthcare. From navigating complex systems to addressing social determinants of health, your advocacy changes lives and strengthens communities across our state.

And just as importantly, we advocate for our profession—for recognition, respect, and a seat at the table. Because when CHWs are seen, supported, and valued, communities thrive.

Today is YOUR day. And your work matters—now more than ever!

📍 Wherever you are celebrating—events, recognitions, community gatherings—we want to be part of it!

📲 Tag us on Facebook & Instagram () so we can celebrate with you!

Let’s fill today with stories of impact, advocacy, and community power across Texas! 💥
