Training to Retain: Strengthening the Role of Indigenous Community Health Workers
Despite their critical role, Indigenous community health workers are often insufficiently supported, and there are not enough community health workers in Indigenous communities in Canada to meet healthcare needs. This research responds to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s 94 Calls to Action by examining how Indigenous community health workers can be better supported, retained, and equipped to serve their communities.
