DE HCR74

Recognizes Delaware's three Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs): Henrietta Johnson Medical Center, La Red Health Center, and Westside Family Healthcare

These centers provide primary, behavioral, dental, and preventative care to more than 41,000 Delawareans, with 98% of patients living on low-income

The FQHCs administered over 34,000 COVID vaccines during the pandemic and operate 16 locations statewide, all accessible by bus, foot, or patient transportation services

Centers offer sliding scale fees to ensure no one is denied care regardless of ability to pay, and provide integrated support for patients recovering from substance use disorders

Resolution reaffirms Delaware's commitment to reducing racial health disparities and ensuring quality, affordable, culturally respectful health care for all residents
