Community Health Centers’ Response to COVID-19 and Serving the Community
The COVID-19 pandemic magnified extant barriers within CHCs, including limitations in funding, staff capacity, and infrastructure for collaboration. CHC constituents highlight lessons learned through organization-wide adaptations and opportunities for the continuation and expansion of pandemic-related changes (e.g., investments in CHCs' workforce, care delivery infrastructure, and avenues for multidisciplinary collaboration) to better serve their communities in the post-COVID era.
