The Health Center That Put a Whole Community on the Care Team
On West Oʻahu, health care is not confined to an exam room. WCCHC built a community-owned system where emergency medicine, food access, job training and Native Hawaiian healing share the same address.
La Clínica de La Raza
La Clínica de La Raza is one of the largest community-based primary health care providers in the San Francisco Bay Area.
