Care at school can make a big difference for students and their families.

After losing his grandmother earlier this year, KIPP Sharpstown student Andre Williams could meet with his Legacy therapist during the school day without leaving campus.

For his mother, Anderra, that meant trusted support for her son without missing work.

All proceeds from the Legacy Community Health Golf Classic on October 12 benefit School-Based Health Care, helping students access medical and behavioral health services right on campus.

A day of golf can help create healthier futures for students across our community.

🤱💙 Supporting families, one feeding journey at a time.

During National Breastfeeding Month, we're proud to recognize the work happening across Legacy Community Health to help parents and babies get the support they need for a healthy start.

This month, our teams connected with patients and families at Legacy locations across Houston, Fort Bend, and Beaumont, sharing breastfeeding education, answering questions, and helping families access trusted resources throughout their infant feeding journey.

We also highlighted the work of Yanett Hodgson, Legacy's Lactation Consultant, whose guidance helps parents build confidence and navigate feeding decisions with personalized support.

Every family's journey looks different, and access to education, encouragement, and compassionate care can make all the difference.

đź’™ What turns healthcare into healthier communities?

The answer is people.

As we close out Community Health Worker Week, we celebrate the Community Health Workers who bring Health Beyond Care to life every day. They build trust, break down barriers, connect families to resources, provide education, and guide people through their health journeys with confidence and support.

From encouraging preventive screenings that can save lives to supporting parents in their children's development, our CHWs make a lasting difference far beyond the walls of our clinics. They bridge the gap between healthcare and everyday life, ensuring people have the tools, information, and support they need to thrive.

✨ We extend our gratitude to all of Legacy Community Health's Community Health Workers for the compassion, dedication, and commitment you bring to the communities we serve. Team members like Terlin Ramirez and Camarell Anderson are just two examples of the incredible impact our CHWs make every day.

đź‘Ź Thank you for improving health, expanding access, strengthening communities, and helping build healthier futures for individuals, families, and communities.

As National Health Center Week comes to a close, we're celebrating the people who make it all possible. đź’™

For nearly 50 years, Legacy Community Health has grown from a single clinic into one of the nation's largest community health centers, serving more than 200,000 patients each year.

This week, Team Legacy came together across multiple retreats and gatherings to reconnect, celebrate achievements, and look ahead to the future. From School-Based Health Care teams preparing for a new school year to clinicians, medical assistants, front desk staff, and support teams gathering across our region, these moments reminded us that our greatest strength has always been our people.

Every appointment, every classroom visit, every patient interaction, and every life changed starts with a team committed to serving our communities with compassion and purpose.

Thank you to every member of Team Legacy for helping expand access to care, improve health outcomes, and create healthier futures for the patients and families we serve.

It takes a village, and sometimes that village includes a dedicated healthcare team. đź’™

This World Breastfeeding Week, we're celebrating the Legacy maternal health and lactation professionals who help families navigate their feeding journeys with confidence.

Whether it's breastfeeding education, lactation support, postpartum guidance, or simply being there to answer questions, our team is committed to helping parents feel supported every step of the way.

Because every family deserves access to the care, resources, and encouragement they need for a healthy start.
