To respond to the rising issue of poor nutrition and eating, La Clínica created the Healthy Food, Healthy Families Program that provides leadership training to community members who are dedicated to making meaningful change. These Healthy Food Champions develop and implement projects focused on healthy eating and addressing food insecurity in their communities in ways that are culturally and linguistically appropriate.

La Clínica delivers dental services to more than 29,000 patients annually across three Bay Area counties at our dental clinics, school-based health centers, and several community locations through our Oral Health Initiative (OHI).

Since 1973, La Clínica’s commitment to ensuring the future of community health has meant training and recruiting future generations of culturally and linguistically competent behavioral health professionals.

At La Clínica de La Raza, we are always thinking strategically about how to grow and sustain our workforce development efforts. Since 2015, La Clínica has partnered with Bay Area Youth Agency Consortium to place AmeriCorps members at La Clínica’s eight School-Based Health Centers.
