    CBO Capacity Building for Health Equity in LA County

    El Sol leads the LA Community Health Workers/Promotores/Representatives (CHW/P/R) Consortium, a growing consortium of 130 organizations co-designing system changes using the CHW model of community transformation. El Sol will provide in-depth capacity building/training for 8 Consortium member community-based organizations (CBOs) and training for 50 CHW/P/Rs, to improve health care access and social determinants of health (LA2050 issue areas), particularly for immigrant and refugee communities and systems-impacted youth, in LA County communities.

    Community in Action

    El Sol will recruit residents as paid Community Health Workers who support vulnerable families, systems-impacted youth and their caregivers, to provide equitable access to health care, affordable housing, social supports, food, and mental health services. We co-create community-based solutions that are inclusive and culturally sensitive to dismantle barriers to care, wellness, and joy, ensuring that Angelenos have appropriate support to achieve well-being. We are addressing LA2050's Learn, Live, Mental Health and Social Support issue areas.
