Senate Resolution No. by Senator McMath designates May 27, 2025, as Louisiana Community Health Center Day at the Louisiana State Capitol. The resolution commends the Louisiana Primary Care Association (LPCA) and the state's community health centers for their dedication to delivering high-quality, cost-effective healthcare to underserved populations. Established as a nonprofit organization, the LPCA represents 41 community health centers that operate over 470 sites across Louisiana, providing essential primary care services, including dental and behavioral health, to more than 503,000 patients in the past year alone.

The resolution highlights the significant economic impact of these community health centers, which have created over 8,800 jobs and generated substantial tax revenue while also achieving considerable savings for the healthcare system and Medicaid program. Emphasizing wellness and preventive care, these centers play a crucial role in addressing health disparities related to race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status, thereby reinforcing their integral role within their communities. The Senate expresses its appreciation for the LPCA's ongoing commitment to improving healthcare access for all Louisiana citizens.
