Community Health Impact Coalition (CHIC) is making professional community health workers the norm worldwide by changing guidelines, funding and policy. A non-profit field catalyst, the coalition is achieving systems change through members and allies who are unpacking their intellectual property and making it public, rather than protecting it. This collaboration is how CHIC wields influence on a scale sufficient to change global norms. It’s pragmatic solidarity: a shared vision of health for all, without caring who gets the credit. CHIC is a coalition of 50 members from impactful community health organizations (Lwala Alliance, Last Mile Health, Muso, etc.)
