MPCA provides an array of programs, services, representation, training and technical assistance to its members to strengthen organizational operations and expand organizational capacity. As a membership organization we also provide a forum for sharing information and fostering partnerships to create a community of community health centers.
MPCA offers three levels of membership (organizational, affiliate and associate membership):
Organizational Membership
Organizational members serve as the governing board for MPCA and represent a collection of Federally Qualified Health Centers, Indian health centers, and island-based community health centers that are controlled by their respective communities.
Affiliate Membership
Affiliate members include FQHC Look-alikes, Rural Health Clinics, and other agencies that either help to form or are allied with the primary care safety net.
Associate Membership
Associate members include entities and agencies not involved in the direct provision of health care services, but who are aligned with our mission.
Regardless of the level of membership, all members benefit from our ongoing efforts to support, develop, educate & communicate.
Support.
