The Massachusetts League of Community Health Centers wants to applaud Rachel A. Gonzales-Hanson, former Interim President & CEO of the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC), who was recognized by The National Latino Behavioral Health Association for her leadership and service to the #Latino community. She is a phenomenal leader, and friend to Massachusetts health centers!

While the impending closure of two Steward hospitals in Eastern Massachusetts continues to raise great concerns about healthcare access, it’s heartening to see Lowell Community Health Center representing the brighter side of healthcare. Already serving 36,000 primary care patients per year, they are now developing a residency program aimed at addressing the shortage of primary care providers in the Greater Lowell region. #StewardHealth #CHC #careaccess https://lnkd.in/egdW8udq

We thank Jake Auchincloss for visiting Manet Community Health Center, Inc.'s Attleboro site during National Health Center Week to celebrate the amazing work being done at Manet locations and other community health centers across the state. Rep. Auchincloss is a true friend of health centers, helping this year to secure an increase and extension of mandatory funding for CHCs — the first increase in such funding in nearly a decade. #NHCW24

It wouldn't be #NHCW24 without acknowledging the limitless contributions that health center staff make every day to provide care to 1M+ patients annually across Massachusetts! We want to give a special shout out to our 2024 Community Health Center Employee Award winners: Jessica DaRosa of Harvard Street Neighborhood Health Center and Joanne Mazar of Community Health Center of Cape Cod! Thank you for all that you do! #StaffAppreciationDay

We're also acknowledging our federal partners this #NHCW24. Since her election to Congress, Congresswoman Lori Trahan has been a stalwart champion for health centers - reaching out, learning about the unique issues and challenges of health centers and their communities, and then stepping up to advocate on their behalf. This year, as a leading voice in support of health centers’ funding reauthorization, she went above and beyond, working from her position as a member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee to fight for the maximum increase available, and bringing along so many of her colleagues. We know the hardest battles are often won behind the scenes and you need someone in the room where it happens to represent your interests. Thank you, Congresswoman Trahan! #StakeholderAppreciationDay

This #StakeholderAppreciationDay we're also shouting out Senate Ways & Means Chairman Michael Rodrigues! He has always been a champion for health centers, including HealthFirst and SSTAR in Fall River. During the COVID pandemic, he worked with his colleagues in the House and Senate to ensure health centers had the resources they needed to survive financially and then step up to provide testing, treatment, and vaccines. He was also instrumental in many historic investments to shore up primary care and behavioral health, including loan repayment, innovative workforce development programming, and more! At this time of unprecedented workforce challenges, it is hard to overstate how critical these resources have been to preserving access to care in our most underserved communities. Thank you, Chairman Rodrigues! #NHCW24

It's #Stakeholder Appreciation Day: This #NHCW24 we're shining a light on a special health center supporter: House Ways & Means Chairman Aaron Michelwitz. The last three and half years have been some of the most trying for health centers, but they have also demonstrated that there is no place with stronger support for community health centers and the communities we serve than the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Our 2024 State Public Service Award Winner, Rep. Michelwitz has been critical to ensuring that health centers have the resources they need to address health inequities and deliver high quality, affordable health care for all of our patients. We are deeply grateful for his leadership and commitment to public health during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, working to provide health centers with the resources needed to save lives in the most impacted communities across the state. The funding Chairman Michelwitz provided health centers to support financial stability, capacity, workforce, and capital was a lifeline, and the MA Repay loan repayment program is not only changing the lives of health center employees, but also providing access to care for the most vulnerable patients in many other settings. Thank you Chairman Michelwitz!
