The Washington Association for Community Health (The Association) is a private, 501 (c)(3) membership association formed in 1985. Our mission is to strengthen and advocate for Washington’s community health centers as they build healthcare access, innovation, and value. The Association provides training and technical assistance directly and through collaborative partnerships to Washington’s 27 Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) in support of the provision of comprehensive, high quality medical, dental, and behavioral healthcare consistent with national health strategies. The Association’s In-REACH program develops and administers medical assistant (MA) and dental assistant (DA) apprenticeship programs that provide didactic education, skills practice, and on-the-job training within Washington’s CHCs and private health systems. The Association also coordinates or supports other workforce initiatives driven by its Board of Directors and identified needs.
