Event Details
The Southeastern CHW Monthly CoLab!
The goal of CoLab is for Community Health Workers and CHW Allies from across the Southeast to offer support and learn together.
Every month, a CHW will present a case study, and an expert will offer training on a topic of great interest. By attending and completing an evaluation, participants will receive 1 hour of CHW CEU every month.
SCCHWA is partnering with SC AHEC, which is providing registration, platform, and evaluation assistance.
SE CHW CoLab will convene monthly on the 3rd Wednesday at noon EST.

Whole Woman Health Across the Life Course: Equipping Community Health Workers to Support Reproductive, Perinatal, and Menstrual Health
Session Learning Objectives
By the end of this session, Community Health Workers will be able to:
- Describe key reproductive, menstrual, and perinatal health needs across the life course, from adolescence through postpartum and beyond.
- Identify practical, community-centered strategies CHWs can use to provide education, reduce stigma, and support women and families in their care.
- Apply trauma-informed, culturally responsive approaches to conversations around women’s and perinatal health within community settings.
Brief Session Description
This interactive session will explore whole woman health across the life course, with a focus on menstrual health, reproductive and sexual health, and perinatal care. Designed specifically for Community Health Workers, the session will connect public health concepts to real-world, community-based practice.
Participants will engage in discussion, scenario-based activities, and reflection to strengthen their confidence in addressing sensitive topics, including menstruation, pregnancy, postpartum care, and health literacy. The session will emphasize practical tools CHWs can use immediately to support women, girls, and families, reduce stigma, and improve health outcomes through education, advocacy, and compassionate care.
