Our Community Health Workers
​

If you are dealing with managing diabetes, pre-diabetes, or hypertension, our Community Health Workers (CHW) can work with you in between or during provider visits to assist you with improving your health.  Are you struggling with sorting out diet improvements?  Really want to get the exercise you need but feel like it’s hard to get started?  Are you considering reducing or quitting smoking?  Our CHW's can meet with you at the Community Health Center of Franklin County in Greenfield or Orange or in your home to help you learn more and move forward.

You probably already have a good idea about actions you can take to improve your health and if not we can help with education and resources.  

Important to your overall health care, we will look at barriers – what’s holding you back from making healthier choices?  Our CHW's can assist you with help and referrals relating to food/dietary issues, housing, applying for disability, child care, fuel assistance, mental health, substance abuse, domestic violence, HIV/Hepatitis C education as well as other issues.

When you choose to work with us you will have the opportunity to develop plans and goals for real world application.

Connecticut River Valley Farmworker Health Program

The Farmworker Program is a valley-wide project of the Massachusetts League of Community Health Centers that pays for primary care services to qualified migrant and seasonal farmworkers and their dependents. The program is offered through participating health centers in Connecticut and Massachusetts.

Vivitrol
We began this program with a partnership with the Franklin County Sheriff's Office to provide ongoing Vivitrol treatment in conjunction with primary care after release from jail.
VIVITROL is a non addictive prescription medication that is injectable once-monthly. This medication is used to treat alcohol dependence and prevent relapse to opioid dependence after opioid detox. Patients should stop drinking before starting VIVITROL. Patients also must stop taking opioids or other opioid-containing medications before starting VIVITROL VIVITROL must be used with other alcohol or drug recovery programs such as counseling. VIVITROL may not work for everyone and has not been studied in children.
