Mission & Focus Areas

NAFC’s mission is “building healthy communities for all through quality, equitable, accessible healthcare.” Its website says its grant programs have supported general operating costs, access to care, emergency response, health equity, social drivers of health, chronic and infectious disease management, mental health, women’s health, substance use services, technology, food security, cancer screening and prevention, medication access, and sustainability and capacity building.

NAFC’s 2024 filing describes its annual symposium and additional education services as providing health education and training for staff and volunteers who serve medically underserved people. It also describes clinics as establishing and maintaining services that support members’ efforts to provide care to uninsured and underinsured people.

The clinics and pharmacies supported by NAFC include organizations with varied services and community roles. For example, Community Volunteers in Medicine says it provides free healthcare to uninsured working people with low incomes; Ann Silverman Community Health Clinic says it provides free medical, dental, behavioral health, and social services to low-income uninsured residents of Bucks County; and Charitable Pharmacy of Central says it provides affordable pharmacy services and coordinates healthcare access for vulnerable people in its community.

NAFC’s website describes grant opportunities for its members. The listed programs include a dermatology expansion program with awards of $20,000, an Advancing Women’s Health program with requests of $50,000 for cancer prevention, screening, or diagnosis services, and a Sun Safety program with awards of $20,000. The descriptions identify free or charitable clinics, charitable pharmacies, and state associations that are members in good standing as eligible organizations. The dermatology and sun safety programs are described as supported by CeraVe; the women’s health program is described as supported by Direct Relief and BD.

The 2024 filing says funded clinics must sign a letter acknowledging grant requirements and submit two reports each year through an electronic portal, summarizing the status of the funds.
