The mission of CCHPR is to improve health and wellness in our St. Louis communities.
We do this by helping communities and researchers work together and learn from each other.
Community Health Consultant program
Researchers need to hear your voice
We ask individuals in St. Louis and rural Missouri to serve as Community Health Consultants. You are already qualified to share your lived experience, the knowledge you’ve gained being you, to help improve health in our communities.
Find out why two of our community health consultants became part of the program our CHC spotlights section.
Pocketbook Party
A conversation at a recent community studio led to CCHPR staff and community volunteers holding a Pocketbook party on Dec. 12 to support community health consultant Chaka and her mission to help women living on the street. Over 25 purses were filled with warm socks and gloves, hygiene items, cosmetics, and more.
Chaka provided a vegan meal in gratitude. She plans to start her own Vegan catering business, “Rated V.”
