This resolution expresses strong support for designating the week beginning August 3, 2025, as "National Health Center Week." It encourages all Americans to actively participate by visiting their local health centers and celebrating the crucial partnership between these centers and the communities they serve. For nearly 60 years, community health centers have delivered high-quality, affordable, and comprehensive primary and preventive care to over 32.5 million Americans in medically underserved communities. As the nation's largest primary care network, they are often the sole accessible source of care across rural, suburban, and urban settings, integrating diverse services like oral and behavioral health. These centers are critical economic engines, generating $118 billion in activity and supporting over 650,000 jobs, while also being at the forefront of public health crises. They effectively overcome barriers to healthcare access, significantly improving health outcomes and reducing overall healthcare system costs for millions.
