Article Synopsis
- Trust is crucial for effective public health; during the COVID-19 pandemic, distrust led to vaccine hesitancy and challenges in immunization.
- Community health workers (CHWs) are essential in addressing these issues, as they can serve as trusted messengers and support vaccine decision-making in their communities.
- The Be REAL framework trains CHWs to prioritize relationship building over simply promoting vaccination, aiming to foster genuine partnerships that can enhance trust in the public health system overall.*
