Mountain Family Health Centers recently announced that it was the recipient of a $100,000 grant from the Vera and Joseph Dresner Foundation.

According to the release, the funds will go toward medical equipment for the nine medical exam rooms at Mountain Family’s new Basalt Integrated Health Center, which opened on Jan. 7.

“At Mountain Family Health Centers, we believe health care is a basic human right,” Mountain Family Chief Executive Officer Ross Brooks said in a press release.



“The support of the Vera and Joseph Dresner Foundation, along with that of our other generous supporters, will help ensure that all members of our community have access to high-quality, integrated care.”
