Community Health Advisors

Community Health Advisors bring cultural knowledge, language skills, and trusted local relationships to our navigation approach. The role centers on listening, resource connections, education, and follow-up alongside health departments and healthcare teams.

People with experience in language access, community education, public health, or resource navigation are invited to connect with FERI-TB about contributing their skills.

Advisory opportunities

We welcome conversations with people bringing TB clinical expertise, public health program experience, or trusted relationships with immigrant and refugee communities. Advisory roles support program design and evaluation; they do not make FERI-TB a clinical provider.

Support alongside clinical care.

FERI-TB is a non-clinical public health organization. Diagnosis, prescribing, treatment, and medical monitoring remain with healthcare providers and health departments.
