Thank you for inviting LPCA to join you for your annual Drug Take Back Day in Bogalusa! Seeing all of these incredible community partners and services come together to remove expired prescriptions and other substances from the homes of their patients is always one of our favorite parts of the year!

Each year has been even more successful and impactful than the one before, and we love being part of such a critical event.

In 2023, Louisiana ranked 4th in the U.S. for HIV diagnosis rates, with only around 87% of individuals knowing their status. Getting screened for HIV is the first line of defense in reducing the spread, and Louisiana's FQHCs and FQHC Look-Alikes are ready to provide those screenings or screening referrals to every patient who enters their doors!

This week, in honor of World AIDS Day, organizations across the state are hosting events to increase screenings, education, and awareness. Find an event near you at louisianahealthub.org/world-aids-day-events!!

🌿 Happy National Rural Health Day! 🌿

Our rural providers and clinics are critical to the health outcomes of our state as 44 of 64 parishes are designated as fully or partially rural. Patients in rural communities often have limited provider options and can face barriers to accessing both care services as well as appropriate and regular medications. We are so grateful to Louisiana's rural Community Health Centers and Health Center Look-Alikes who create one-stop shops for care in the areas that need them most.
