The $11,270,468 in federal grants, awarded through the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), will support the continuation of primary care, dental and behavioral health care services to mid-Michigan residents, particularly those who are medically underserved or live in rural areas, as well as veterans. The following community health centers in mid-Michigan will receive the federal grants:
- Great Lakes Bay Health Centers will receive $5,371,208.
- Hamilton Community Health Network will receive $3,584,444.
- Sterling Area Health Center will receive $2,314,816.
Congressman Kildee continues to fight to ensure mid-Michigan residents have access to affordable health care, including announcing over $14 million in federal grants to fund Community Health Centers in mid-Michigan, as well as grants for rural and underserved providers. Community Health Centers provide primary care, dental and behavioral health care services to families, particularly those in medically underserved areas.
