Our Mission is to lead the transformation of primary care to achieve health equity for all. Our members are Oregon's community health centers, also known as Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), and those who support them. Community health centers deliver integrated primary care, including dental and behavioral health services, to over 466,000 Oregonians.
In addition to providing integrated primary care, health centers work to help patients improve the circumstances of their lives and develop healthy behaviors, through services like job training, literacy education, and connection to resources for affordable housing and healthy food.
