Christ Community Health Services, often referred to as Christ Community, or Christ Community Health, is a nonprofit, Christian, faith-based, healthcare provider with several locations across the Memphis, Tennessee area founded in 1995. Christ Community Health Services is officially classified as a federal qualified health center (FQHC). Christ Community Health Services aims at providing affordable healthcare to the homeless and low-income individuals in communities throughout Memphis.[1] Dental care, physical care, and counselling are some of the several services provided by Christ Community. Shantelle Leatherwood is the current Chief Executive Officer of Christ Community Health.[2] In 2011, Christ Community Health Services was involved in a family planning controversy with nonprofit organization Planned Parenthood in which Christ Community replaced Planned Parenthood as the contract holder for free, family planning services in Memphis.[3][4] Christ Community Health Services has also aided the Memphis community during the Covid-19 pandemic by providing free Covid-19 testing as well as Covid-19 vaccines.[5][6]
