ROCKFORD (WREX) - Crusader Clinic is on the long list of state health centers getting federal money for upgrades.
Crusader is getting $1,652,800 to help make repairs, renovations and to buy new health information technology systems.
"Last year over 1.1 million people in Illinois were treated at community health centers which administer health care to low-income families, many without health insurance," said Illinois Senator Dick Durbin. "Today's funding will support this critically important work and lead to economic growth in many underserved communities as health centers serve as a key soure of local employment and economic activity."
The Whiteside County Health Department and Whiteside County Community Health Clinic are also getting $616,240 for improvements.
