Project Description

Community Health Partners (CHP) is a community health center organization with three medical sites, two dental sites, and a full literacy/GED and ESL program. In 2006, an HCH program began to serve seasonal farm workers in Park County, a sparsely populated, frontier county in south-central Montana.

Approximately 502 seasonal workers and their families are targeted to receive primary health care services, including preventive health care, injury prevention, substance abuse treatment, tobacco use cessation, and mental health services. CHP's HCH project employs a medical provider (0.6 FTE), case management staff, health educators, lay outreach workers (a rural Promotora model), as well as other support staff, and has expanded on-site access to literacy services, GED opportunities, job retraining (on-site and through partnerships), and English as a Second Language services.

Linkages include Bozeman Deaconess Hospital, Livingston Memorial Hospital, The Mental Health Centers of Park and Gallatin Counties, and Southwest Chemical Dependency Center.
