2018 SESSION
WHEREAS, HealthWorks, Northern Virginia’s most comprehensive family practice, which provides care to all patients, regardless of ability to pay, has served the community from its Herndon location for more than five years; and
WHEREAS, HealthWorks, formerly known as the Loudoun Community Health Center, is a federally qualified health center that has served Northern Virginia residents for more than a decade; in 2012, the organization merged with the Jeanie Schmidt Free Clinic to open a Herndon office; and
WHEREAS, the merger with HealthWorks allowed the Jeanie Schmidt Free Clinic, which served approximately 2,000 low-income patients in 2011 to expand to a new location with additional exam rooms and treatment capabilities, significantly increasing its ability to care for the community; and
WHEREAS, from its Herndon office and other locations in Northern Virginia, HealthWorks provides medical, dental, and behavioral health services to anyone, regardless of age, ability to pay, or insurance; and
WHEREAS, HealthWorks also offers nutrition counseling, health assessments, and laboratory services; the organization has greatly enhanced the quality of life for numerous low-income Herndon residents in its five-year history; and
WHEREAS, HealthWorks has fulfilled its noble mission with the help and hard work of its staff and the generosity of numerous community partners; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED by the House of Delegates, the Senate concurring, That the General Assembly hereby commend HealthWorks on the occasion of its fifth anniversary of serving the Herndon community; and, be it
RESOLVED FURTHER, That the Clerk of the House of Delegates prepare a copy of this resolution for presentation to the Board of Directors of HealthWorks as an expression of the General Assembly’s admiration for its years of providing health services to Northern Virginia residents in need.
