Our Thanks

United Community Health Center’s board of directors, management team, employees and patients want to thank the following agencies, companies, organizations and individuals for their generous support of our mission. It has been through the generosity of these agencies and people that we have been able to provide reliable and accessible primary healthcare and to do so with a level of quality second to none.

As a federally qualified community health center [FQHC] and a 330 Grant recipient, United Community Health Center benefits from being granted nearly $1.4 million dollars each year from HRSA. This includes coverage for our providers under the Federal Tort Claims Act Malpractice Insurance. These dollars and liability insurance coverage allow United Community Health Center to provide healthcare services for the uninsured and for those in medically underserved areas.

Dental screening program for children which brings educational, screening and sealant protection services to children who might otherwise not have access to any dental care. A healthy mouth translates into a healthier life and greater educational success for kids in school.

The Vaccines for Children program ensures that all children, regardless of their family’s ability to pay, will be properly protected.

By funding the Continental Community’s application for funding, United Community Health Center is able to add the Pediatrics Practice Wing to the Continental Family Medical Center. From this new space more of our littlest patients will receive care.

United Community Health Center has been a recipient of funding from this nearly all volunteer organization for many years. From the 2007 award cycle we received $43,000. These proceeds support our healthcare services programs for children.

This organization has been a consistent supporter of United Community Health Center’s programs targeted to bring healthcare to the children in our service area. From the 2007 award cycle we received $4,250 from the GGVCF to support these programs.

Through a grant of more than $100,000 the Tohono O’odham Nation enabled United Community Health Center to begin what has become our growing and effective Dental Program for Kids. Without their generosity hundreds of children in our service area would not have received the dental screening and treatment services that they needed.

From virtually the inception of United Community Health Center the people of Arivaca, through their Arivaca Area Health Services organization, have collaborated with United Community Health Center to provide us with a building from which primary healthcare services are provided to this very rural community.
