Would you like an opportunity to make a difference in your community?<\/strong> The Wright Center has opportunities available for patients to voluntarily serve on The Wright Center for Community Health\u2019s Board of Directors. The board represents patients, just like you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our primary care community health centers are essential community providers, serving a growing patient population in Northeast Pennsylvania. The locations provide primary and preventive care services, including medical, dental, behavioral health, addiction and recovery services, and additional supportive service lines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Wright Center for Community Health is community-owned and patient-governed. As a primary care community health center, The Wright Center is committed to treating individuals of all ages and income levels, regardless of their insurance status, ZIP code, or ability to pay. No patient is turned away due to an inability to pay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We want a board with people of all incomes, educational levels, and backgrounds. You will provide leadership, oversight, and guidance to The Wright Center so it can successfully fulfill its mission to provide whole-person primary health services to patients and deliver graduate medical education training to residents and fellows.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
