Powering Communities through Caring Connections
Each year, Community Health Centers impact the lives of over 31.5 million patients across 15,000 communities, providing essential healthcare services to underinsured, uninsured, and underserved communities nationwide.Community Health Centers are more than just healthcare providers; they are pillars of strength, service, and care in their communities. Through moments of pain and loss, they offer unwavering support and compassion. In moments of triumph, they inspire hope and envision a healthier future for all.
This year's theme is powering communities through caring connections. By fostering partnerships between health centers and elected officials at every level of government, we strengthen our communities' voices and ensure that healthcare remains a priority for all. Join Erlanger from August 4th to August 10th in recognizing and celebrating the incredible impact of Community Health Centers on patients everywhere.
