The connection between the health and wellness of each person and our wider community means one impacts the other. We’re routinely reminded of this relationship through pandemics and outbreaks—some sounding an alarm louder than others. Our interconnected health is something community health centers, like CCI Health Services, have been keenly aware of for over half a century. Over our 52-year history, we’ve continued to adapt and grow to support the health of each individual who walks through our doors and the communities we proudly serve.
CCI Health Services is more than just a doctor’s office. We are a nonprofit medical practice grounded in community service. At CCI, we strive daily to create a quality health care experience for all communities.
Empowerment is at the core of our health care model. We equip our patients and participants so they can take control of their health and wellness journey. Our strategy to improve health outcomes and meet the unique needs of our community rests on our comprehensive services:
At CCI, we choose love every day, and our love language is support for good health. CCI is open to all because we believe everyone has the right to great health care.
CCI’s mission is to lead the way to a more equitable health care system for everyone by delivering high-quality, accessible care to our community members. We envision a healthy and empowered community for generations to come. This is why we continue to seek ways to break down the barriers to health care our community experiences.
The number of patients and WIC participants CCI supports increases annually. In just three years, CCI increased the number of individuals served by 14%, from 59,950 in 2020 to 68,372 in 2023. Accordingly, our visits also increased 55%, from 81,126 three years ago to 126,474 in 2023.
Read our report on CCI Health Services’ work to improve health care accessibility through partnerships to keep our patients and community healthy.
CCI is a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC). FQHCs, also called Community Health Centers, are the nation’s largest network of primary health care providers, increasing access to care for all, regardless of ability to pay, on a sliding scale fee. FQHCs receive grant funding from the Federal government to meet operational needs, recruit and retain staff and expand needed patient services.
We are as diverse as the community we serve because we are from the community. CCI employs over 340 community members in clinical and administrative roles. Just like our patients, our staff represent a variety of backgrounds.
We answer the call when our friends and partner organizations ask for health education and services at community events. Following the shutdown of the pandemic, we knew we had to get out in the community, provide helpful information, and reintroduce ourselves to our neighbors. 2023 was a record year for CCI Health Services' participation in community events, with over 60 events attended or hosted throughout the region.
