Q: What is the biggest challenge facing Southern Nevada?
A: The biggest challenges facing Southern Nevada are the opioid crisis, untreated Hepatitis C, HIV and sexually transmitted infections. The biggest challenge of all are that people are not aware of community health centers, or Federally Qualified Health Centers, like our health center and what they stand for.
