"Celebrating America's Health Centers: Turning the Vision Into Reality" is the theme for National Health Center Week 2010 (NHCW). NHCW provides the opportunity to reflect on the recent progress Arkansas Community Health Centers (CHCs) have made through ARRA and State Funding. NHCW also provides Arkansas CHCs an opportunity to publicly acknowledge our commitment to fulfill the promise which began with the Access for All Arkansans plan, and that has been emboldened by the recent passing of Health Care Reform into law, to provide a health care home to nearly 240,000 Arkansans by 2015.
