High level Project Objective: Fostering total worker health Winrock International, along with its consortium members, New York Institute of Technology – College of Osteopathic Medicine at Arkansas State University (NYITCOM-Arkansas), and Community Health Centers of Arkansas (CHCA) propose a two-year project that will address healthcare needs in four persistent poverty counties in Arkansas: Mississippi, St. Francis, Phillips, and Chicot.
By focusing on employees and worksites as a target audience, the SHARE project will reach a key sector of the population in the Delta, and directly address chronic disease burdens driven by social and economic determinants. Residents of these counties experience many health disparities, including higher rates of “lifestyle” chronic diseases rooted in social determinants of health.
SHARE is designed to work with 20 employers located in 4 counties in Arkansas. For a detailed RFP please click here to download. Applications should be submitted via the link below.
