Community Health Centers Need Your Voice!

Community Health Centers are healthcare homes that make up the backbone of our nation’s primary care system. Community, Migrant, Homeless, and Public Housing Health Centers, also known as Federally-Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), provide comprehensive care to over 32.5 million patients at 16,000 service delivery sites in every state and territory. Health centers save the healthcare system $24 billion annually in reduced emergency, hospital, and specialty care costs.

Why should Community Health Centers, patients, and supporters engage in Advocacy?

Because…

• Community Health Centers can and should be part of the solution for challenges facing the health care system
• Community Health Centers are one of the few things that still have congressional bipartisan support
• Many of the 32.5 million patients we serve would have nowhere else to go
• Our network is 100,000 advocates strong
• But, we still need YOU!
