Association of Asian Pacific Community Health Organizations

Remote

$27 - $33/hr

Full-time

Posted 6 days ago

Job description

About AAPCHO
The Association of Asian Pacific Community Health Organizations (AAPCHO) was formed in 1987 by community health centers primarily serving medically underserved Asian/Asian American (A/AA) & Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander (NH/PI) communities. The goal of these organizations was to create a national voice to advocate for the unique and diverse health needs of A/AA and NH/PI communities and the community health providers that serve those needs.
AAPCHO's mission is dedicated to promoting advocacy, collaboration, and leadership that improves the health status and access of A/AA and NH/PI communities within the continental U.S., Hawai'i, U.S. Territories, and Freely Associated States. Our vision is to be a national leader and critical voice for A/AA and NH/PI community health centers and consumers, ensuring that our communities have better access to affordable, high-quality, and culturally and linguistically proficient health care.
OUR VALUES
The following shared values underlie every aspect of AAPCHO and its member health centers' functions and operations:
  • Health care is a right not a privilege - All people must have access to affordable quality care, regardless of language, culture, immigration status and ability to pay. No one is turned away due to inability to pay and our services and policies are designed to eliminate barriers and provide access to all.
  • Wellness - Health is much more than the absence of disease. It includes physical, mental and spiritual well-being for individuals, families and communities. We acknowledge and respect different definitions of wellness and health within our communities.
  • Community Accountability and Empowerment - Communities are the experts on their own health and essential participants in the health of their communities, families and selves. Our services and programs are informed by and responsive to community voices.
  • Diversity as Strength - AA and NHPI communities are rich in diversity of language, cultural heritage, spirituality, history, experience, health beliefs and practices. Many have undergone the hardships of war, colonization, poverty, or immigration to a foreign land. We honor and value the strengths of every culture and individual.
  • Collaboration Among Communities of Color - Communities of color share a history of disparities and exclusion as well as a common interest in health and health care equity. Through collaboration, we learn from each other and grow stronger, while overcoming distrust and divisions that are fostered by competition for limited resources.

SELECTION PROCESS

subject line: AAPCHO Research Assistant. Applications should include a one-page cover letter and resume.
