WASHINGTON D.C. — U.S. Senators Joe Manchin, D-W.Va. and Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va., recently announced $19,212,223 in funding from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for health centers throughout West Virginia.

“Every West Virginia community deserves quality healthcare facilities and this funding will support the health centers that provide the primary and preventive care that many West Virginians rely on,” Manchin said. “I will continue to advocate for organizations seeking to improve and expand healthcare services across our state, especially in our rural communities.”

“Our health centers here in West Virginia play an important role in keeping communities healthy,” Capito said. “As a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, I was glad to play a part in securing this funding that will provide health centers across the state with the resources necessary to continue delivering critical services residents need to maintain a healthy lifestyle.”

Among the grants awarded is $1,147,892 to Pendleton Community Care.
