National Health Center Week 2010 is a weeklong campaign dedicated to celebrating the mission and accomplishments of the national network of Community Health Centers. National Health Center Week comes as the nation prepares to overhaul the U.S. health care system, thanks to passage of the landmark health reform law. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act directly invests in prevention and primary care throughout the expansion of health centers. On August 6, 2010 President Obama issued an official proclamation.
