Summit 2026

Dear SECHWN Summit Community,

On behalf of the Southeast Community Health Worker Network, thank you for being part of the 2026 SECHWN Summit! With over 400 attendees joining us, we are incredibly grateful to each and every one of you for helping make this year’s Summit so special!

To everyone who attended, presented, volunteered, sponsored, exhibited, partnered, and supported this year’s Summit, we are incredibly grateful. Each of you contributed to the energy, connections, learning, and sense of community that made these two days in Greenville so meaningful.

To our attendees, thank you for showing up ready to learn, connect, share your experiences, and celebrate the incredible work happening throughout our communities. We hope you left the Summit with new connections, valuable resources, and renewed inspiration to continue moving communities forward.

To our sponsors, thank you for investing in the Community Health Worker workforce and helping make this experience possible. Your support allowed us to bring together CHWs, allies, partners, and leaders from across the Southeast and beyond for opportunities to learn, connect, and grow. We were also excited to welcome teams from Connecticut, New York, Delaware, California, Wisconsin, New Jersey, Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania, Oklahoma, Maine, and many other areas beyond the Southeast region, making this year’s Summit a truly far-reaching gathering of CHWs, partners, and supporters.

To our exhibitors, thank you for sharing your organizations, programs, resources, and services with our attendees. Your presence added another important opportunity for our Summit community to make connections and discover resources they can take back to the communities they serve.

Most importantly, thank you for believing in the power of Community Health Workers and in the importance of creating spaces where this workforce can be celebrated, supported, and heard.

Although the 2026 Summit has come to an end, our work and our connections continue. As we announced during the Summit, we hope to see you in Louisiana for the 2027 SECHWN Summit! More information will be shared as planning gets underway.

Until then, thank you for helping us make the 2026 SECHWN Summit an experience we will remember.

Together, we are moving communities forward.
