National Health Center Week: Celebrating Community Health and Care
From August 3–9, 2025, the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) sponsors National Health Center Week to celebrate and increase awareness of America’s nearly 1,500 Community Health Centers.
These centers provide high-quality, affordable healthcare to over 32.5 million patients across 16,000 communities annually, serving as pillars of strength, service, and care for many populations across the country.
