Health Resources and Service Administration (HRSA) has awarded CVN a three-year $2.25 million HCCN grant to strengthen the quality of care and improve patient health outcomes achieved by Health Center Program award recipients and look-alikes. CVN’s HCCN grant extends to July 31, 2019. Upon contract award, CVN adopted the name Healthy Communities Collaborative Network for its HCCN.
