National Health Center Week
Celebrating Community Health Centers
Community Health Centers are the backbone of healthcare for millions of people across the country.
Every day, health center teams expand access to care, address growing behavioral health needs, and improve the health of their communities despite workforce shortages, rising demand, and increasing operational complexity. During National Health Center Week, we're proud to recognize the incredible work Community Health Centers do every day.
To our partners and to health center teams across the country, thank you. Your commitment to whole-person, community-based care changes lives, and we're honored to support your mission.

Stronger Together
Behavioral health is essential to delivering whole-person care, but meeting growing demand takes more than additional providers. It takes the right partnership.
Ascend works alongside Community Health Centers to strengthen behavioral health through integrated telepsychiatry, therapy, substance use disorder services, and operational support that fit seamlessly within existing primary care models. Together, we're helping health centers:
Expand access to behavioral healthcare
Reduce wait times
Support care teams
Improve patient outcomes
Build sustainable behavioral health programs
Measurable Impact
Partnership in Action
Every Community Health Center is different, which is why every Ascend partnership is built around the unique needs of each organization.
One example is our work with Adelante Healthcare, where we helped redesign and scale behavioral health services across a nearly 90,000-patient population, resulting in:
Behavioral health engagement reached nearly 21%
More than 85,000 annual behavioral health visits
Sustained same-day behavioral health access
Program revenue growth from $6.4 million to $21 million
