The National Assembly has passed the Community Health Workers Bill, 2022 (National Assembly Bill No. 53 of 2022).

The Bill which was endorsed by lawmakers on 20th November 2024 is sponsored by Ndhiwa MP Hon. Martin Peters Owino and seeks to establish a legal framework to acknowledge the essential role of CHWs and incorporate them into the government payroll. Currently, these workers provide crucial health services at the grassroots level, often without pay.
