Through their dedicated contribution over last 30\u00a0years, the <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CHP<\/jats:styled-content>s have improved Korea's public health through the successful control of high birth rates, a lowered maternal and infant mortality rate in the 1980s, eradication of parasitic infection, and containing many communicable diseases including hepatitis B. However, rapid changes in the health care environment and demands for health care among rural residents have required changes in the roles and functions of the <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CHP<\/jats:styled-content>s. They are challenged by fundamental changes in the public health system addressing various health issues due to a rapidly aging society, pandemic of chronic disease, new infectious disease, and climate changes. <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CHP<\/jats:styled-content>s should continuously transform their roles and functions to establish a lifelong health management system.

Also, recent challenges that <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CHP<\/jats:styled-content>s are facing and strategies to overcome those challenges will be discussed.
