New Mexico Community Health Worker Association

The New Mexico Community Health Worker Association is based in Albuquerque and serves the broader metro area while focusing on economic development issues. This organization works to strengthen the role of community health workers and advance their professional standing within New Mexico's healthcare landscape.

Community health workers play a vital role in New Mexico, where rural areas and underserved communities often face significant barriers to accessing healthcare services. The state has long struggled with health disparities, limited medical infrastructure in remote regions, and gaps in culturally responsive care. Strengthening the economic viability and professional recognition of community health workers helps address these challenges by supporting those who are uniquely positioned to serve as bridges between their communities and the broader healthcare system.

As a registered 501(c)(3) public charity, the New Mexico Community Health Worker Association qualifies as an eligible recipient for tax-deductible donations. Community support for nonprofits working on health and economic development issues is essential for sustaining their operations and expanding their reach.
