National Health Center Week may be winding down but it’s certainly not over! This is a time to celebrate the health centers that provide essential health care services in our communities. Community Health Center (CHC) staff members are deeply committed to the CHC mission to provide high-quality health care services to all people, regardless of income or insurance status.
To the dedicated staff at CHCs across the country: Thank you for all that you do, every single day, to support the health of our communities.
