The first district in Illinois. which I have the honor and privilege to represent. has ten facilities as part of a statewide network of 250 primary health care delivery sites that will serve 850.000 patients this year. My Illinois colleague. Representative DANNY DAVIS. who introduced this resolution. credits the health centers for contributing to the health and well being of minority communities by keeping children healthy and providing preventive health care so that parents and adults can remain employed. These centers have significantly increased the availability of preventive health care for minorities. migrant and homeless individuals and families. I am glad to join my colleague in support of this resolution to recognize the efforts of the community based organizations in providing these important services.
