New Training for Community Health Workers
Tulane University New Training for Community Health Workers January 28, 2011 3:30 AM Keith Brannon [email protected] When it comes to staying healthy, sometimes check-ins are as important as checkups. That's the philosophy behind a new Tulane University School of Medicine program that aims to train community health workers to provide health education and act as liaisons between patients and their doctors or social services providers. Outreach to New Orleans patients such as George McClain, left, receiving diabetes treatment at a Tulane mobile clinic, will be increased by the training of community health workers. (Photo by Paula Burch-Celentano) These advocates check in with patients to make sure they're following doctors' orders and properly taking their medications, for example, and can even help them access social services to address any barriers to keeping themselves healthy. Using a $250,000 federal grant, Tulane is partnering with RAND Corp. to start the Tulane RAND Community Health Worker Training Institute. It will offer residents who have at least a high school diploma a formal, 120-hour training course in health outreach, patient care coordination and health advocacy. A pilot class begins Feb. 1, says Ashley Wennerstrom, senior program manager for the Tulane Office of Community Affairs and Health Policy. “Trained community health workers are important, and often underutilized, members of healthcare teams. They provide education, link hard-to-reach populations with health and social services, and advocate for individual and community health needs,” Wennerstrom says. “The institute fills a vital Tulane University | New Orleans | 504-865-5210 | [email protected] Tulane University niche in our region by supporting critical workforce development for community health workers while increasing knowledge and research about how they can contain healthcare costs, improve public health and increase post-disaster community resilience.” The grant was funded by legislation sponsored by U.S.

August 10, 2021 the Honorable Nancy Pelosi the Honorable Steny
August 10, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Steny Hoyer Speaker Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader Hoyer, As we advance legislation to rebuild and renew America’s infrastructure, we encourage you to continue your commitment to combating the climate crisis by including critical clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives in the upcoming infrastructure package. These incentives will play a critical role in America’s economic recovery, alleviate some of the pollution impacts that have been borne by disadvantaged communities, and help the country build back better and cleaner. The clean energy sector was projected to add 175,000 jobs in 2020 but the COVID-19 pandemic upended the industry and roughly 300,000 clean energy workers were still out of work in the beginning of 2021.1 Clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives are an important part of bringing these workers back. It is critical that these policies support strong labor standards and domestic manufacturing. The importance of clean energy tax policy is made even more apparent and urgent with record- high temperatures in the Pacific Northwest, unprecedented drought across the West, and the impacts of tropical storms felt up and down the East Coast. We ask that the infrastructure package prioritize inclusion of a stable, predictable, and long-term tax platform that: Provides long-term extensions and expansions to the Production Tax Credit and Investment Tax Credit to meet President Biden’s goal of a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035; Extends and modernizes tax incentives for commercial and residential energy efficiency improvements and residential electrification; Extends and modifies incentives for clean transportation options and alternative fuel infrastructure; and Supports domestic clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation manufacturing.

Mark Masselli: Margaret, I should not have been surprised that the day after our show with Jennie Chin Hansen President of AARP I received another AARP invitation to join up. They really want me to join. Do you think it was the interview? Margaret Flinter: No, I think you really qualify for membership and I am hoping you will take them up on it but seriously AARP doesn’t miss to be. The bigger news was the next day they came out in support of President Obama’s healthcare reform initiative. Mark Masselli: But remember the order from their lips to our listeners’ ears then to the president. By the way Margaret, when are we going to have the president in our show? Margaret Flinter: Not to worry, I will be sure and let you know and I am working on it. Mark Masselli: Speaking of guests who have had their president’s year, today we are going to hear from Congressman Joseph Cao who spent a lot of time this weekend talking with their president as he was the lone republican who voted for the afordable healthcare for America Act. Margaret Flinter: It was a memorable moment on Saturday night watching on C-SPAN when that one lone republican I-vote went up on the score cards. It was really a courageous act by the congressman and he is an amazing individual and we are looking to learning more about him today.
