Topics in this area would address overall organizational strength and endurance of health centers to survive, thrive and prosper. Sessions may focus on topics aligned with the HRSA Health Center Excellence Framework, including financial sustainability, quality patient care and safety, enhancing patient experience, access and affordability, and governance.
