The announced grants include $549,560 to Stony Creek Health Center, $772,460 to the Daily Plant, $906,830 to the City of Richmond Health Center and $586,625 to Horizon Health Services.

Congressman McEachin said, “This pandemic continues to ravage the nation and the Commonwealth, disproportionately impacting the low-income and health-compromised individuals least able to fight it. These resources will assist these organizations in diagnosing the virus to reduce community spread and helping those stricken to have every chance to recover.”
