Community Health Centers are local, non-profit health care centers providing comprehensive primary care to all residents regardless of ones ability to pay for such services. We serve as a patients safety net and maintain an open-door policy, providing high quality affordable care for both self pay and patients with insurance coverage. Also known as Federally Qualified Health Centers, the centers are governed by a local board of directors and are generally located in areas where care is needed but in short supply.
