AWARD CATEGORIES

Dr. Evelyn D. Schmidt Outstanding Service Award

In 2002, the North Carolina Community Health Center Association (NCCHCA) established the Dr. Evelyn Schmidt Outstanding Service Award. A pioneer in social and community medicine, Dr. Schmidt, affectionately known as “Evy,” was the first Executive Director/CEO of Lincoln Community Health Center in Durham, NC, and served in that capacity for 40 years before retiring in 2011 and her death in 2019. Each year, as a tribute to Dr. Schmidt, NCCHCA honors a community-oriented organization that has improved access to care through innovative, comprehensive approaches as evidenced by outreach efforts, preventive health and educational programs, quality and efficiency of care, and/or strong community support and involvement.

Association Service Award

Formed in 1978 by North Carolina community health center leaders, NCCHCA thrives on the strength, dedication and excellence of our members and partners. From among them, we recognize each year an individual or organization for outstanding service to the Association, helping to envision the future and identify paths to success toward NCCHCA’s vision that: ‘Every North Carolina community will have access to a patient-centered, patient-governed, culturally competent health care home that integrates high quality medical, pharmacy, dental, vision, behavioral health, and enabling services without regard to a person’s ability to pay.”

Health Center Advocate Award

Since 1965, health centers have provided comprehensive, cost-effective, high-quality primary health care services to medically under-served communities and vulnerable populations. Unfortunately, the nearly 50-year-old success of the community health center program doesn’t guarantee its continuing existence. With its Health Center Advocate Award, NCCHCA honors an individual who consistently and passionately engages health center staff, health center board members, community groups and others in grassroots advocacy and education to promote and protect the Health Center Program in North Carolina.
