At the Washington Association for Community Health, we bring community health centers together to collaborate and expand access to high-quality health care statewide. We help community health centers navigate state and federal policy, provide evidence-based health care, and problem solve as a group. Our services include workforce development programs, technical assistance and training, and policy advocacy.

 

Our members deliver health care to nearly 1.3 million Washingtonians each year at more than 400 clinic sites. Community health centers are directed by local consumers and respond to the needs of the community, serving all without regard to economic or insurance status. They are vital providers in the state’s health care safety net, serving as the primary care provider to 35% of Medicaid/CHIP enrollees in 2024.The Association strengthens our member health centers' work with the information, partnerships and tools that make high-quality care a reality for people across the state.​
