A total of $1.3 billion was allotted to health centers across the country during the pandemic. “Our health centers play a critical role in tackling this pandemic by providing quality care to vulnerable Americans, who are being disproportionately impacted by COVID-19,” said U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore (D-Milwaukee). “These facilities need additional support to continue providing treatment, diagnoses, and preventative care for individuals with COVID-19, which is why I am so excited to announce that five health centers in Milwaukee will receive more than $4 million in funding.”Get more news and insights in the March 30 issue of BizTimes Milwaukee:
