In an interview with CPR News, our very own Dr. Hans Elzinga, who directs the Special Procedures Clinic for Salud Family Health in Longmont and serves as our ButtSavers clinical lead, explains why cancer screening saves lives. Early detection helps catch cancer before symptoms appear, when treatment is most effective and outcomes are strongest.

ButtSavers helps remove barriers to colorectal cancer screenings for uninsured patients in our communities. Screening works, and access matters. With your help, we can keep our communities healthy and catch cancer early, no matter your circumstances. Join us in supporting our community and donate today!

🚨 Call Congress to Vote Yes on Increased CHC Funding by January 30 🚨

Lawmakers are racing toward the January 30 funding deadline, and Community Health Centers are fortunate that bipartisan leaders have listened to our calls for action. Earlier today, congressional leaders released bipartisan legislation that includes critical investments to support Community Health Centers and the 52 million patients who rely on them for care. NACHC appreciates the work of bipartisan Congressional leaders to reach this important legislation and urges passage as soon as possible.

The proposal includes:
✔️ $4.6 billion in base funding for Community Health Centers in FY 2026
✔️ $350 million for the National Health Service Corps and $225 million for Teaching Health Center Graduate Medical Education, with future increases planned
✔️ An extension of telehealth flexibilities through 2027

Now, Congress must act, and the time is now to remind them how critical this funding will be for health centers and their patients. Community Health Centers need funding certainty to continue delivering high-quality, affordable care, address workforce shortages, and ensure access for patients nationwide.

📣 Take action today. Call on Congress to vote YES by January 30. Follow the link now.

January is Thyroid Awareness Month.

Your thyroid plays a vital role in regulating metabolism, energy, heart rate, and more. Thyroid disorders are common and often go undiagnosed, but early awareness and care can make a big difference.

If you’re experiencing symptoms like fatigue, unexplained weight changes, or sensitivity to cold or heat, talk with your healthcare provider. Staying informed is an important step toward overall health.

As Community Health Centers (CHCs) mark 60 years of saving lives and dollars, they need your help. Federal funding that keeps CHCs open expires January 30, 2026. Without action from Congress, patient access is at risk.

CHCs now care for more patients than ever before, serving 52 million people across 17,000 locations nationwide. They include:

✅ Over 10 million rural residents (1 in 3)

✅ More than 20 million people who live in poverty (1 in 3)

✅ More than 6 million uninsured people (1 in 5)

CHCs serve 1 in 7 Americans, yet account for only 1% of total U.S. healthcare spending, saving Medicaid and Medicare billions of dollars annually by reducing costly emergency, inpatient, and specialty care.

America needs Community Health Centers. Together, we must ensure that every Community Health Center can continue delivering high-quality, affordable care that saves lives.
