Submitted by xlschwa on Thu, 11/17/2022 - 11:15 am

You will often see Health Department community health workers at food distribution events across Fairfax County. Community health workers assist at these events while also sharing important health information and resources with the community. Food distribution events provide opportunities for community health workers to meet people where they are, no matter where they are.   

Community health workers continue to partner with a variety of faith-based organizations that host events, including Centreville United Methodist ChurchGrace CovenantFirst African Methodist Episcopal, and St. Anthony of Padua.  

Some of the community food distribution events in recent weeks include:
