Today’s focus day for National Health Center Week is Health Center Staff Appreciation Day. This focus area is important because it allows us to foster a conversation around the value of having health center staff and volunteers give their time and heart to providing services to patients and the community. Without them, community Health Centers would not exist.

It is essential to have people of color in our healthcare systems to ensure recognition and culturally appropriate care.
Thank you, Neelam, for your dedication to being a part of the change the world needs to see!
