ABOUT US
In 1981, fueled by the desire to provide quality, accessible
healthcare to migrant and farm workers in their community, five
visionary women laid the foundation of what would later become
Tri-Cities Community Health (TCCH). As a Federally Qualified Health
Center (FQHC), TCCH stands tall in the community, boasting six
clinical sites strategically positioned to provide comprehensive
primary care services to the underserved populations of Pasco,
Kennewick, Richland, and the neighboring cities. Serving as the
trusted medical home for our patients, TCCH offers a wide range of
services - from dental care, optometry, and pharmacy needs to
behavioral health and endocrinology. Our spectrum of services is
continually expanding as our community grows. Our excellent care
extends beyond the walls of our clinics, seamlessly connecting
patients to vital social services like WIC and Maternal Support
Services. And for those facing logistical barriers, we go the extra
mile, ensuring access to prescribed medication by delivering
directly to their doorstep. Everything we do reflects our core
values of Quality, Respect, and Service.
OPPORTUNITY
TCCH is growing and actively recruiting WIC Breastfeeding Peer
Counselors to join our Care Team within the Pasco WIC, Behavioral
Health, and Dental Care site. We are seeking passionate, driven
individuals who align with our values of Quality, Respect, and
Service, and are eager to make a meaningful impact on the
well-being of our patients through delivery of exceptional care.
Our paraprofessional WIC Breastfeeding Peer Counselors provide
basic breastfeeding information and encouragement to pregnant and
breastfeeding women participating in the WIC program.
FUNCTIONS
At Tri-Cities Community Health, we are dedicated to making a
lasting impact on the lives of others while keeping pace with our
rapidly growing community. Enjoy flexible scheduling, excellent
benefits, and a fulfilling work-life balance that allows you to
embrace the 300 days of sunshine the Tri-Cities has to offer! As a
healthcare professional with TCCH, you'll be a part of a
collaborative team focused on providing comprehensive care to the
underserved and underinsured populations of our community -
creating meaningful, generational change.
