The Chatham-Kent Community Health Centres are non-profit, community governed, multi-service health centres that provide primary health care, health promotion and community development services all under one roof. We are designed with the community in mind and for that reason we target marginalized populations such as the economically disadvantaged, individuals with addictions, individuals suffering from emotional or mental health challenges, individuals of First Nations descent, youth (13-21) and others. Our services can be accessed at four locations: Chatham, Wallaceburg, Walpole Island and Pain Court. We also collaborate with other community service agencies as we believe that by utilizing each other’s skills, we are able to deliver optimal programs that promote wellness and improved health for our clients and the community at-large. Many of our programs are accessible free of charge to all residents of the Chatham-Kent community.
