Mary Ellen Heisler and Adrienne Lapidos (co-PIs), Edith Kieffer, and colleagues received a sponsored project award from the Ralph Wilson Foundation. The project, conducted in collaboration with 3 health plans in Detroit, focuses on the use of Community Health Workers (CHWs) to reach marginalized underserved groups who may have reason to mistrust formalized systems of care and to generate jobs in low-resource communities.
