Celebrating National Health Center Week 2024

We’re celebrating National Health Center Week 2024!

Every August, the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) sponsors National Health Center Week (NHCW) to celebrate and increase awareness of America’s 1,400 Community Health Centers (CHCs). National Health Center Week is an opportunity to highlight the commitment and passion of staff, board members, and supporters at places like us, Lynn Community Health Center, who, together with national CHC’s, make it possible to provide quality, comprehensive healthcare services to more than 31.5 million patients across nearly 15,000 communities annually.

#NHCW24 Theme: Powering Communities Through Caring Connections

Community Health Centers serve as a beacon of strength, service, and care in their communities. In moments of pain and loss, we offer support and love. In moments of triumph, we offer hope and a vision for the future. This year’s National Health Center Week theme focuses on empowering communities by connecting them with health centers and elected officials from all levels of government. Celebrate the uniqueness of our community and get to know those dedicated to lasting partnerships!

By the end of the week, this banner will be full of staff names and notes! 

Over the course of this week, we’ve been highlighting our staff and teams here and on social media (find us on Facebook, Instagram, X, or LinkedIn!). We’ve been out in our community, hearing directly from staff on why they love working at Lynn Community Health Center, giving away special swag and produce to our community, teaching our elected officials CPR and Narcan administration, and more!

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our incredible sponsors—Stop and Compare, Community Care Cooperative, the National Association of Community Health Centers, the Massachusetts League of Community Health Centers—for their unwavering support during National Health Center Week. Special shout-out and appreciation to In The Game, My Brothers’ Table and our elected officials for their support, commitment, participations.

The amazing work you do year-round has a profound impact on our community, allowing us to provide the highest quality care to our patients. Your commitment to fostering health and well-being empowers us to overcome challenges and serve those in need effectively. We deeply appreciate the vital role community support plays in our mission; without it, we could not continue to deliver the exceptional care that our patients deserve. Thank you for standing with us and for the health of our community!
