“The 12th Congressional District is celebrating. We are celebrating the grand opening of Covenant Community Care, an essential health clinic on Joy Road in Detroit. For 8 years, Covenant Community Care operated a small healthcare clinic, limiting very much their ability to provide and serve the most vulnerable. However, my team and I worked incredibly hard and successfully obtained community project funding of $500,000 to expand to a 10,000 square foot health center, tripling healthcare services for our community. The facility will serve 10,000 patients and offer primary care like medical, dental, and behavioral health services. I saw it myself. It is incredible. This increases healthcare access to people living in that part of Detroit that is right now designated by the Health Resources and Services Administration as a ``health professional shortage area'' and a medically underserved area. Again, I am incredibly proud and congratulate the CEO there, Joslyn Pettway, and the Covenant Community Care staff for their ongoing partnership to serve and care for our communities and residents. ____________________”
