As a health network, we bring together Community Health Centers (CHCs) and other health leaders with our shared values of equal access to care and social justice. As members of Washington state’s vibrant communities, we understand the challenges that our fellow Washingtonians face when attempting to access and finance care in the midst of our busy lives. That’s why we focus on affordable, accessible community care.
