impact statement

 Rhode Island Statistics: Nearly 1 in 3 Rhode Islanders relies on Medicaid for healthcare coverage, highlighting the critical need for accessible and affordable health services.

 Medicaid & Access to Care: Medicaid provides essential health coverage to low-income families, seniors, and individuals with disabilities, yet many struggle to navigate the complex healthcare system, leading to gaps in care.

The Impact of Community Health Workers (CHWs): Studies show that CHWs improve health outcomes, reduce hospital visits, and increase access to vital resources like housing, food assistance, and employment support. Their culturally competent and bilingual services break down barriers to healthcare and social services, ensuring no one is left behind.

At RI Support Network, our dedicated CHWs are here to guide, support, and empower our community. Need help? Reach out today!
