Connecting People Experiencing Homelessness to Care

National Health Center Week 2026

In collaboration with First Stop 

As part of National Health Center Week, Central North Alabama Health Services, Inc. (CNAHSI) is partnering with First Stop to present Connecting People Experiencing Homelessness to Care.

• Provide primary care office visits and screenings
• Answer health questions
• Help participants establish or reconnect with ongoing healthcare services
• Connect participants with additional healthcare and community resources

Lunch and hygiene care kits will also be provided while supplies last.
