The Wright Center joins national ‘Building Care With You’ campaign to elevate awareness of community health centers
The Wright Center for Community Health is proud to announce that it is participating in the “Building Care With You” campaign, a national effort led by the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) to amplify the vital role community health centers (CHCs) play in improving health outcomes, expanding access to care, and strengthening communities.
For over 60 years, CHCs have delivered affordable, effective, comprehensive, and trusted care — in the neighborhoods where people live, work, and raise their families. The “Building Care With You” campaign unifies and elevates the voice of CHCs across the country as the largest primary care network in this nation, by:
- educating local residents, community partners, and policymakers about the full range of services CHCs provide;
- strengthening patient trust and engagement with CHCs in their communities; and
- reinforcing the importance of ongoing investments in CHCs at the local, state, and federal levels.
“By joining ‘Building Care With You,’ we can tell our story more powerfully,” said Dr. Linda Thomas-Hemak, the president and CEO at The Wright Center. “Every day, we work to break down geographic, financial, and cultural barriers to care. This awesome campaign gives us shared tools and a clearer voice to reach more people and remind our communities that high-quality, compassionate care is here.”
Headquartered in Scranton, The Wright Center has a growing network of community health centers across Lackawanna, Luzerne, Wayne, and Wyoming counties. Its locations offer affordable, comprehensive, high-quality, whole-person primary and preventive health services to people of all ages, income levels, and insurance statuses. Patients typically have the convenience of going to a single location to access integrated medical, dental, behavioral health, addiction and recovery, and Ryan White HIV services.
The “Building Care With You” campaign is a national branding and awareness initiative led by NACHC. Through shared storytelling, it aims to build long-term recognition of CHCs as the provider, employer, and partner of choice. Visit NACHC.org for more information.
