Message From Our CEO


 

 

On behalf of San Fernando Community Health Center (SFCHC), welcome to your healthcare home! Serving the community since 1924, SFCHC is a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) dedicated to providing quality, compassionate care to every person, with an emphasis on communities that are underserved by limited access to healthcare.

Our dedicated team of health professionals provides a full complement of medical, dental, behavioral health and education services in a warm and supportive environment. We believe everyone deserves access to quality and patient-focused healthcare, regardless of income, insurance status or ability to pay. Our primary mission is your health.

Now, and in the years ahead, SFCHC will continue to invest in expanding our care management team, overcoming barriers to health equity, and building trusting and informative relationships with our clients. Our primary care services are linked to major health plans and healthcare institutions to better serve individuals who require specialized care and empower them to make the best medical choices.

As Chief Executive Officer, I am very proud to lead our great team as we continue SFCHC’s nearly century-long legacy as a treasured health resource in the San Fernando Valley. We are deeply grateful to serve you and the community we love.

- Audrey Simons, MSHA
