The event is being held in celebration of National Health Center Week, which runs from Aug. 13 through Aug. 19. This year’s theme for National Health Center Week is “Celebrating America’s Health Centers: The Key to Healthier Communities.” One of the bright spots in America’s health care system, Community Health Centers serve more than 25 million Americans, a number that continues to grow along with the demand for affordable primary care.
