This year, National Health Center Week will be observed from Sunday, August 2, 2026, through Saturday, August 8, 2026. The 2026 theme, “Building Innovative Care, Where It Matters Most,” highlights how Community Health Centers (CHCs) use creativity, dedication, and forward-thinking approaches to meet patients where they are—improving access to care, enhancing primary care delivery, and achieving better health outcomes nationwide.
Join us as we celebrate the vital role of community health centers while preparing students and families for a healthy, successful school year!
For 56 years, TCA Health has been a trusted cornerstone of care on the Far South Side of Chicago, and we are proud to now extend our services to families in Hammond, Indiana. Our mission is rooted in providing high-quality, equitable, and accessible healthcare, improving health outcomes, reducing disparities, and meeting people where they are.
Through our National Health Center Week (NHCW) Celebration and Annual Back-to-School Health Fair, we address critical gaps in care while creating a meaningful impact for families in our community. These events provide essential services such as school and sports physicals, dental exams, and behavioral health screening services that support early detection, prevention, and overall wellness.
Together, we can ease the burden on families, uplift our community, and create healthier futures. Your partnership makes it possible for our dedicated healthcare professionals to continue showing up, caring deeply, and meeting people where they are—when it matters most.
