FAMILY
HEALTH CENTERS of San Diego
BACKGROUND:
Family Health Centers of San Diego (FHCSD) is an organization rich in history
and tradition. The small building located at 1809 National Avenue in San Diego has been a
source of community services to the residents of Barrio Logan for nearly
one hundred years. FHCSD's first health center, the Logan Heights
Family Health
Center, was founded
on this site over three decades ago.
South of San Diego's downtown
core and East of the bay, Barrio Logan was originally a San Diegueno Indian
rancheria. By the early 1900s the community's population included
African-Americans, Native Americans, and various European ethnic groups.
The San Diego Industrial School
was built in 1911 on the site now occupied by the Logan Heights
Family Health
Center. When the Logan Heights Family
Health Center
was remodeled in 1986, a wall was torn down in the front reception area
revealing a solid brass plaque which read, "The San Diego Industrial
School".

VISTA
COMMUNITY CLINIC
BACKGROUND:
Located in the cities of
Vista and Oceanside in northern San Diego County, Vista Community Clinic (VCC)
is a private, nonprofit health care center. It was founded in 1972 to serve
people who experience social, cultural or economic barriers to health care.
Conceived in the days of free street clinics, VCC's first home was donated
space in the local dog pound. Volunteer doctors and nurses cared for people
who could not otherwise obtain health care. Pharmaceutical representatives
donated drugs and supplies.
In 1974, the Clinic received its first governmental funding and moved to an
old church building. The number of people the Clinic served continued to
grow. In 1980, we saw more than 8,000 patients in 16,000 visits annually.
The decade of the 1980's was a period of tremendous population growth in North County;
Vista and Oceanside
doubled their population. The Vale Terrace Branch site was built for Vista
Community Clinic in 1986. In 1988, Vista Community Clinic opened the
Tri-City Branch on Thunder
Drive across from Tri-City Medical
Center.
The number of visits
increased 20% a year, to 51,900 in 1990 when the Health Promotion
Center was
established, and in 1992, the Women's Center opened. It then became clear
that the Tri-City Branch could no longer house all the needed services, so
a larger facility was secured. Vista Community Clinic-West opened in 1995
as a collaboration with Tri-City Medical Center
in a small renovated house on Horne
Street in downtown Oceanside.
