According to the March of Dimes Maternal Health Report Card for Louisiana, our state ranks 51st of 52 in preterm births and 46th in infant mortality with around 7 infant deaths per 1,000 births. Our numbers have gotten worse year over year.

That is why LPCA remains committed to improving maternal health outcomes in Louisiana through educating communities and legislators on the critical need for expanded maternal and infant health services through Community Health Centers.

We are and encourage our member health centers and community partners to recommit to improving maternal mortality and maternal wellness throughout the state!

This MLK Day of Service is a perfect opportunity to reflect on what we are doing for others, how we can better serve our neighbors, and how can we best offer compassion to everyone we meet. LPCA commits to continuing the work toward a healthier, more just future for all Louisiana, regardless of ability to pay.

We are blessed to be in the position daily to serve others and to promote the work of Louisiana's Community Health Centers as well as the needs of the communities they serve.

According to Louisiana Cancer Prevention & Control Programs, Louisiana has one of the highest cervical cancer death rates in the country. However, cervical cancer is largely preventable! Regular screening and the HPV vaccine can wipe out cervical cancer as well as other cancers.

Every woman from ages 21 to 64 should be regularly screened for cervical cancer, and both men and women can receive the HPV vaccine that prevents HPV-caused cancers.

Happy New Year!!

While this past year was incredibly challenging for Community Health Centers throughout Louisiana and across the nation, we also saw what has been an absolute truth for FQHCs and FQHC Look-Alikes throughout their 60 years of serviceβ€”a commitment to seeing those challenges through together and coming out of them stronger and more united.

Our team at LPCA is so grateful for the support we’ve seen for Community Health Centers throughout the year, the new partnerships we’ve made, and the projects we have planned for the coming year that will strengthen our ability to serve our state’s most vulnerable communities.

We hope the New Year brings you good luck and a stronger commitment to creating a better tomorrow for your community πŸ’™πŸ§‘βœ¨

In 2023, Louisiana ranked 4th in the U.S. for HIV diagnosis rates, with only around 87% of individuals knowing their status. Getting screened for HIV is the first line of defense in reducing the spread, and Louisiana's FQHCs and FQHC Look-Alikes are ready to provide those screenings or screening referrals to every patient who enters their doors!

This week, in honor of World AIDS Day, organizations across the state are hosting events to increase screenings, education, and awareness. Find an event near you at louisianahealthub.org/world-aids-day-events!!
