Membership

The Centers for Health, Work & Environment (CHWE) Membership Program brings together researchers, practitioners, educators, and community partners who share a commitment to advancing worker health, safety, and well-being. Membership offers meaningful opportunities to connect, collaborate, and share your work within a multidisciplinary network grounded in research, practice, and real-world impact, all at no-cost. With tailored pathways for university-affiliated faculty and non-academic partners, CHWE membership is a simple, accessible way to engage with the center’s programs, events, and collaborative initiatives while contributing to our shared mission.

Benefits of Membership


CHWE offers two membership pathways—Affiliate Faculty and Affiliate Partners—to support meaningful engagement across academic and non-academic settings. Each membership type is designed to foster collaboration, visibility, and shared impact while advancing CHWE’s mission to improve worker health, safety, and well-being. Membership is free and open to individuals who are actively engaged—or interested in engaging—in CHWE research, programs, and collaborative efforts.
