From The Greater Prince William Community Health Center:

The Greater Prince William Community Health Center will celebrate National Health Center Week with free health screenings, patient education, tours and children’s activities from Aug. 7 to 9, 9 a.m.- 3 p.m. each day.  The three-day event—which features the Sentara Digital Mobile Mammography Van, INOVA Diabetes Nutrition Counseling, LabCorp health screenings, Medicaid enrollment, and free car seats for qualifying patients—will be held at the Center at 4379 Ridgewood Center Dr. in Woodbridge.  

This year’s theme for National Health Center Week, “Powering Healthier Communities,” illustrates the impact community health centers are having in providing access to health care for all area residents regardless of age, income or insurance status. The Health Center welcomes the entire Prince William community—including Medicaid, Medicare and insurance patients—to its 2012 National Health Center Week celebration.

Partners of the Health Center’s National Health Center Week activities include: the Virginia Health Care Foundation, Sentara Northern Virginia Medical Center, Potomac Health Foundation, Amerigroup, LabCorp, Inova Health System, Northern Virginia Family Service, Lake Ridge Lions Club, BB&T, and the Boys and Girls Clubs of Prince William County/Manassas.  All activities are free and open to the public.
