    2020 LEGISLATIVE TOOLKIT Oklahoma Primary Care Association OKLAHOMA COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS STATEWIDE OVERVIEW 21 health centers in Oklahoma operate 110+ locations across the state WHAT ARE COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS? Community health centers (CHCs), also known as Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) or health centers, are non-profit health care providers that deliver comprehensive primary health care services to medically underserved communities. To best serve their patients, many health centers offer a one-stop-shop of integrated services under one roof like medical, dental, behavioral, vision, transportation, case management, and more. The health center program provides health care to over 28 million individuals in the United States. Health centers have long been a bipartisan solution to concerns about health care access, quality, and cost. Health centers treat all patients regardless of ability to pay. In Oklahoma, where many families and individuals lack access to primary care, health centers provide much-needed cost-effective and preventive services and save the health care system money by preventing expensive, avoidable emergency department visits and chronic illnesses. Health centers use sliding fee scales based on patients’ income, have after-hours coverage, meet extensive performance and accountability requirements, and are governed by patient-majority boards that reflect the communities they serve. From Afton to Guymon and Hollis to Idabel, community health centers create jobs and save lives in every corner of our state.

More than 10,000 prehistoric sites are recorded for the state, and they are estimated to represent about 10 percent of the actual number, according to archaeologist Don G. Wyckoff.

  • Oklahoma Senate Voter's Guide
    2018 Oklahoma Senate Voter’s Guide 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS: A MESSAGE FROM CAIR-OK GOVERNMENT 1 AFFAIRS DIRECTOR VOTING IN OKLAHOMA 2 HOUSE 5 DISTRICT MAP CANDIDATE 5 QUESTIONS CANDIDATES 6AND RESPONSES SD 14 6 SD 16 10 SD 22 16 SD 30 19 SD 32 25 SD 36 28 SD 40 32 SD 46 37 SD 48 38 2 A MESSAGE FROM CAIR-OK GOVERNMENT AFFAIRS DIRECTOR Assalamu Alaikum and Greetings of Peace, This 2018 Primary Candidate Guide was created with the Oklahoma Muslim community in mind, in order that you may have the tools and resources available to be an informed and confident voter in the June primary election. In 2018 a record number of citizens filed to run for office. We narrowed it down, reaching out only to candidates running in districts identified as having a higher concentration of Muslim voters. We asked their stances on issues of immigration, budget, bullying, hate crimes, and education. We were working with an aggressive timeline in order to get this guide to you in time to help you make educated decisions for the primary (June 26th). Thus, some candidates did not have the time to answer all of our questions. This is not necessarily a statement on their support or opposition to CAIR or the Muslim community. My goal as your Government Affairs Director is to encourage diversity and equity at our legislature; in both representation and in legislation. Prosperity, innovation and art all wither in environments of homogeny.
