For 68 years, Erie Family Health Centers has grown and evolved because of the dedication, compassion, and expertise of its staff. Every day, you bring our mission to life—providing care that extends beyond the exam room and creating a space where all patients feel seen, heard, and supported. Just as a thriving garden depends on a variety of plants growing together, Erie’s strength comes from the diversity of experiences, perspectives, and talents that make it a place of healing, care, and belonging. This Honey Bee Flower Mix represents the values we cultivate together:

-Purple Coneflower (Echinacea) – Resilience, Healing, and Strength
-Red Poppy – Remembrance and Hope
-Aster-Crego – Love, Wisdom, Joy, and Positivity
-Forget Me Not – Love, Devotion, and Belonging
-Cornflower – Beauty and Integrity

Like these flowers, Erie’s success is rooted in the dedication and diverse contributions of its people. Whether you provide direct care, support patients behind the scenes, or keep our operations running, your work strengthens our community. Rooted in the fight for health equity, Erie continues the legacy of community health centers born from the Civil Rights movement, ensuring that everyone—staff, patients, and our broader community—has a place where they feel valued and supported.

As you plant these seeds, let them serve as a reminder of the lasting impact you make each day. Just as flowers need care and time to bloom, every action—big or small—helps build a healthier, more inclusive future.

Thank you for all that you do. Together, we grow.

Happy DEIB Day!
