The Kansas Association for the Medically Underserved (KAMU) exists to achieve equitable access to high quality health care for all Kansans. As the Primary Care Association (PCA) for the state of Kansas, KAMU has been supporting and strengthening its member organizations through advocacy, education, and communication since 1989. KAMU represents a diverse group of public and private nonprofit primary care clinics, Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), local health departments, and rural health clinics, as well as private individuals who have a keen interest in health care for Kansas’ underserved populations. Together, the member clinics are known as the Kansas Safety Net, and they provide medical, dental, and behavioral health care regardless of the ability to pay.

KAMU’s mission is to grow and strengthen the clinics so that all Kansans will have a health care home where they can receive high quality preventative care and seek treatment for acute and chronic conditions that cover the spectrum of primary, dental, and behavioral health care.
