in the house of representatives
Mr. KENNEDY of New York. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate Neighborhood Health Center, one of many that has sought to bring primary care health services to the communities of Western New York. The Health Resources and Services Administration ranks Neighborhood Health Center as the top health center for quality in Western New York, and the opening of the newest location in Buffalo marks a tremendous step in access to high quality and equitable healthcare.
Neighborhood Health Center opened to address the critical need for affordable primary care in underserved communities. Welcoming all Western New Yorkers since 1987, Neighborhood Health Center now serves as the region's leading primary care provider to more than thirty thousand patients. Neighborhood Health Center serves as not just a healthcare provider. It offers youth and senior citizen programming, education, crime victim assistance, daycare, and much more.
at the front line of community enrichment, providing services that contribute to mental health, family planning, and individual safety. This new site will create employment for the community as well as be another symbol of our strive to ensure a stable and supportive system in Western New York, with all being welcome at all Neighborhood locations. Even those who are uninsured or underinsured.
Mr. Speaker, let us celebrate the contributions that Neighborhood Health Center has made and their unwavering dedication to service that they have demonstrated to patients across Western New York. Although our work is never ending, please join me in thanking all those who have contributed to Neighborhood Health Center as they continue to provide exceptional care and contribute to our region.
