CHAN is dedicated to healthcare education and awareness for undeserved populations with a focus on the African immigrant communities in the Greater Worcester Area. Services for immigrant communities include health education and screenings, disease prevention, community health fairs, diet & nutrition information, community outreach, and CPR training.

CHAN also partners with local health care agencies in the community to provide services and tackle health disparities through quality, comprehensive, sustainable health and wellness educational programs.
