Emma and Daniel are no strangers to LCH. From routine checkups with their Primary Care Providers in Kennett Square and Oxford to casework with the Social Assistance team, from dental visits to citizenship classes, they’ve seen it all! In fact, Emma and Daniel also bring their two children to LCH for their pediatric visits.

We are celebrating our rich Latino roots this Hispanic Heritage month by helping to spread the word about the the National Institute of Health’s All of Us Research Program. The free program follows participants over the course of ten years in order to better understand patterns of illness and how the medical profession can better help underrepresented patients. Read our recent press release.

The LCH team is excited to help the community get ready to vote next month! Along with helping the community connect to important resources like health insurance and public support, our Social Assistance team can help with voter registration, applying for a mail-in ballot, and learning more about the voting process. Call (610) 444-7550 option 7.

Construction will kick off next month for LCH's new location in downtown Oxford (14 South Third Street, previously the Sewer Authority) in 2021. The larger, more central space will provide patients with more LCH services in one convenient location, and more room for community collaboration.
