HopeHealth Achieves Renewed Gold Status For Advocacy Efforts

HopeHealth has again been named a Gold Level Advocacy Center of Excellence by the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC), one of only three Community Health Centers in South Carolina to earn this status.

HopeHealth has been an Advocacy Center of Excellence (ACE) since 2016 and has earned and maintained Gold Level status since 2018. HopeHealth was the first Community Health Center in South Carolina to achieve ACE status, and the 22nd center in the country to achieve Gold status.

The ACE program recognizes and rewards Community Health Centers that demonstrate excellence in formalizing their advocacy program to make it an integral, institutional part of their health center operations. These Community Health Centers create a culture of advocacy to ensure policymakers at all levels of government commit to investing in the affordable, equitable, and innovative care they provide.
