WHO WE ARE

A Legacy of Care, A Future of Wellness

The Caribbean Health and Wellness Network (CHAWN) is dedicated to improving health outcomes through education, advocacy, and access to culturally competent care.

Originally founded as Caribbean Culture United (CCU), our organization began by bringing the community together. As we listened, we recognized a critical need for chronic disease education and health advocacy—leading to the creation of CHAWN.

Empowering Wellness Through Action

Health Education:

We provide culturally relevant education to help individuals understand and manage chronic conditions.

Health Screening:

We offer screenings that help identify risks early and guide individuals toward appropriate care.

Healthcare Navigation:

We support individuals in understanding and navigating the healthcare system with confidence.

Community Connection:

We bring together individuals, families, and professionals to build a supportive health network.

FAITH & HEALTH

We believe that seeking healthcare is not a denial of faith, but an expression of it. Our faith-inspired approach integrates spiritual beliefs with evidence-based care, recognizing health as stewardship.
