Community Health Outreach Workers (CHOW)

CHOW meetings, sponsored by the HIV/AIDS Program of Public Health - Seattle & King County, are for outreach workers and other line staff who interact with low-income people who are at risk for or have substance use/abuse problems. The goal of the CHOW meeting is to provide trainings and discussions that will improve and support your work in the community. Trainings include topics that focus on HIV/AIDS, harm reduction, referrals and services.
