Community Health Improvement Leadership Academies (CHILAs) is a dynamic, engaging, and empowering experience, embodying shared core values and interconnected activities to ensure members of the community and the Equity in OC Initiative strengthen and accelerate their skills and lift their individual and collective assets to create meaningful goals and achieve them by:
Understanding how health and well-being are generated through our relationships and how we live together.
Identifying issues that are important to them, assets that each participant can bring to the table, and opportunities for meaningful work together.
Developing tools, skills, and behaviors to address the prioritized social determinants of health topics equitably.
Helping communities develop the relational trust and resources needed to participate in any change effort or improvement that arises.
