Delewin De Leon, Medical Clerk at Parkview Health Center, is representing DVCH in the National Health Center Week 2026 Button Contest, and we’d love your support! 
 
What makes Delewin’s entry especially unique is that she is one of only two contestants who hand-drew her button design, making it a truly original and personal creation.
 
Public voting is open through August 28th, and you may vote once per device and once per email address. Every vote counts!
 
The winning design will be announced September 1st in the National Association of Community Health Centers’ Washington Update newsletter. The winning button will then be printed and distributed to attendees at NACHC’s 2027 Policy & Issues Forum.
 
Let’s rally behind Delewin and show our DVCH pride!

Please share with your colleagues, friends, and family and help spread the word!
DVCH is proud of you!

Chelsea Johns, PACHC Public Health Program Manager, attended launch of a new mobile pantry partnership between River Valley Health and The New Love Center.

This collaboration represents more than food distribution. It is an innovative, patient-centered approach that brings additional support, connection, and care directly to those who need it most. By meeting patients where they are, this partnership helps address food insecurity while strengthening the broader network of services that contribute to better health outcomes.
The New Love Center's onsite presence creates meaningful opportunities to connect with patients and families, ensuring they feel supported, valued, and cared for beyond the walls of the health center.

Congratulations to River Valley Health and The New Love Center on this
