National Health Center Week 2025

Integrated Health Centers of West Virginia (IHCWV) was thrilled to celebrate National Health Center Week 2025! The annual event highlights the essential role Community Health Centers (CHCs) play in improving public health and providing Americans with an equal opportunity for health. CHCs represent the nation’s largest primary care network, serving 32.5 million patients nationwide.

This year’s week long celebration, sponsored by the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC), focused on the theme: “America’s Health Centers Celebrating 60 Years of Improving our Nation’s Health.” CHCs across the country joined the celebration through a host of scheduled events that include resource fairs, back-to-school drives, health screenings, and visits to CHCs by local, state, and national leaders.
 
With a mission to make high-quality, affordable care available to everyone, regardless of their ability to pay or insurance status, CHCs save lives and healthcare costs on the front lines of our nation’s most pressing public health challenges. They are powered by a workforce of over 310,000 dedicated professionals who reach beyond the walls of the exam room with effective services that not only prevent illness but also address the factors that may cause it. IHCWV is immensely proud to be a part of such an impactful legacy. As we look forward to celebrating our 31st anniversary this September, we are excited to continue upholding the mission of providing accessible, patient-centered care to the communities we serve.
