The community-based, non-profit partner clinics of the San Francisco
Community Clinic Consortium (SFCCC) are cornerstones in San Francisco's
health care delivery system. From 1956 to 1992, these clinics were created
in under-served neighborhoods to ensure that people who are at greatest
risk for poor health outcomes – due to such things as lack of insurance,
low-income or homelessness – did not continue to fall between the
cracks in our health care system.
In 1982, these clinics – recognizing their shared values and concerns
– came together to form SFCCC, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
With SFCCC an organization was created that would allow these clinics
to pool their collective resources – both financial and experiential
– and would also serve as a vehicle to address their needs and interests,
and those of their patients, to local, state and national policy makers.
SFCCC works to lead and support the partnership in three core areas, each
with distinct programs: Program Design & Management;
Partnership Services; and Partnership
Promotion. While SFCCC partner clinics focus on patient care, promoting
individual health to preserve the well-being of the communities they serve;
SFCCC promotes the health of our clinics – keeping them poised to
adapt to a changing health care environment – so that their long-standing
tradition of community care is persevered.
The SFCCC partnership (SFCCC with it’s partner clinics) provides
primary care services to nearly 65,000 San Franciscans each year –
almost 10% of the City’s total population – and brings into
the City and County of San Francisco more than $33M in health care revenue
annually. Together we work toward a future vision in which all people
have access to quality, community-based health care provided in a culturally,
linguistically and population-sensitive manner. (To view SFCCC’s
