Beatty Heralds Importance of National Health Center Week

This week, August 9th to August 15th, is National Health Center Week, a weeklong celebration of our nation’s 1,400+ community health centers and their important, lifesaving work. To mark the occasion, U.S. Congresswoman Joyce Beatty (OH-03) issued the following statement:

“For more than five decades, community health centers across our nation, including Ohio’s Third Congressional District, have put the health and well-being of their patients first in everything that they do. This unyielding commitment to service is all the more important now, given the fact that the COVID-19 pandemic has forced tens of millions of Americans out of work and put their healthcare on the chopping block. With this in mind, I want to salute our community health centers and their dedicated staff for their continued efforts to make a critical difference in the lives of some 30 million Americans they serve each year.”
