All year, we're working to expand the resources available to Virginia's health centers in carrying out their essential mission. VCHA's Annual Conference is our biggest opportunity to connect with member health centers, from sharing updates on our work to hearing directly on the areas of greatest need.

At this year's conference, the VCHF team was busy! Michael presented during VCHA's Membership Meeting, sharing more about the 2026-27 Community Health Scholarship awardees and the Foundation's ongoing partnerships with health centers. Throughout the week, he and Caitlin connected with members and partners to share more about the Foundation's mission and opportunities for future collaboration.

Though the Conference is over, our conversations are already continuing. Thank you for such a successful week!

Over the next decade, experts are predicting healthcare provider shortages in the tens of thousands, from primary care and nursing to behavioral health and dentistry. Through the Community Health Scholarship, the Virginia Community Healthcare Association is doing something about it.

In this episode of CommonHealth, Kate speaks with Eve Gilles and April Thomas, Community Health Scholarship recipients pursuing advanced degrees in social work and nursing. Their insights on the barriers faced by students and the impact of scholarships and funding are essential in understanding how we can best support the next generation of healthcare professionals and close the care gap that lies ahead.
