|
|
WHEREAS, Established in 1992 through a collaboration between |
|
|
Leadership Temple and local physicians and community leaders, |
|
|
Temple Community Clinic seeks to expand access to quality health |
|
|
care for uninsured and underinsured residents of Bell County; the |
|

clinic offers a wide range of services in areas such as cardiology, |

|
|
health care; and |

|
residents, the organization is in the process of building a new, |
|
|
larger facility; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Over the past three decades, Temple Community Clinic |
|
|
has made vital contributions to the health and welfare of countless |
|
|
Bell County citizens, and it is indeed deserving of recognition on |
|
|
the occasion of this significant milestone in its history; now, |
|
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby commend Temple Community Clinic for 30 years of |
|
|
service to the community and extend to all those associated with the |

|
|
important work; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for Temple Community Clinic as an expression of high |
