Goal: $20,500.00
Specific Need
HealthWorks for Northern Virginia is a patient-centered medical practice providing compassionate, comprehensive care with excellence. Our multilingual team offers medical, dental, and behavioral healthcare to all community members, no matter your income or insurance status. HealthWorks gives families the care coordination they need for optimal health.
HealthWorks remains committed to providing high-quality care to our community, but changes in federal funding could present challenges to our ability to continue providing the level of care and access necessary to serve our vulnerable population. With community support, we can provide:
- A $35 glucometer to a diabetic patient to check blood sugar level
- Transportation to a visit to a specialist, valued at $50.
- A $100 screening mammogram for the detection of breast cancer
- A $125 dental exam and cleaning for an underinsured patient
- A $380 HPV vaccine to acquire immunity against infection from certain human papillomavirus
Mission
The mission of HealthWorks for Northern Virginia is to provide excellent and affordable medical, dental and behavioral healthcare in our communities by being compassionate, culturally competent, and accessible to all.
