Background on Funding

NACHC is focused on passing a bill to reauthorize the federal Community Health Center Fund. The CHCF provides about 70% of federal funding for health centers and ensures stable, multi-year base grant funding for Section 330 grantees.

This funding stream is determined by the Energy and Commerce (E&C) Committee in the House of Representatives and by the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee in the Senate.

This stream of funding is determined by the House Appropriations Committee and the Senate Appropriations Committee.  Check out the letters and lists below to see the members of Congress who are supporting us in this year’s budget process:
