National Health Center Week 2021 

NACHC’s National Health Center Week (NHCW) The Chemistry for Strong Communities will take place Sunday, August 8 to Saturday, August 14. NHCW brings awareness to communities and elected officials about the mission and accomplishments of health centers over the past five decades. NACHC encourages health centers to engage the community, partners, and elected officials in your celebrations.  

Each day of NHCW is dedicated to a particular focus area. Focus days are available to enhance events, help provide structure, and maximize the national impact of our message.
