Community Navigator – Chicanos Por La Causa, Inc. (CPLC) Be the Bridge Between Community and Care.

You connect people to resources that transform lives.

Keogh understands that health is more important than health insurance. In 2016, we began to identify and train qualified Community Health Workers/Promotores de Salud to link health care providers and patients, identify available social services, and teach healthy living and disease management. Community Health Workers are not just an extension of core clinical services; they are key to providing effective primary care and supporting our goals. Assist with applications, provide referrals, and lead health education. Bilingual (English/Spanish) and community or healthcare experience preferred. Travel required.

How will you make an impact in this role?

As a Community Navigator, you’ll be on the frontlines connecting individuals and families to essential resources such as health insurance, food assistance, and quality care. You’ll help clients complete applications for AHCCCS (Health‑e‑Arizona PLUS), SNAP, and Marketplace health coverage while providing referrals to other community programs.

You’ll also promote wellness by leading health education workshops, screenings, and community outreach events—helping people take charge of their health and improve their quality of life.

Who you are:

You’re a compassionate problem solver who believes everyone deserves access to care and opportunity. You thrive in community settings, are bilingual (English/Spanish), and understand how to navigate healthcare and social service systems. You communicate clearly, stay organized under pressure, and take pride in helping others achieve stability and wellness.
