Dev. Database Admin. Assistant

Who we are: La Clnica de La Raza is a community-based health center committed to providing culturally appropriate high-quality and accessible health care to the diverse communities of the San Francisco Bay Area. We have spent over 40 years advocating for and creating a health home for the many that have been denied access to care. As health care activists we are dedicated to ensuring that individuals who do not have healthcare coverage receive the same quality healthcare as those who do. From our genesis as a community health center in 1971 we understood that we cannot heal our communities without also addressing the economic and social factors that affect health. Many times this requires that we go outside and provide services in other settings that link individuals to our health center for preventive and primary care. Over 90000 individuals come to La Clnica because it is a welcoming place that addresses the whole person coordinating and connecting them to a broad network of services to improve and maintain their health and well-being. While we are still known for our activism and spirit of social justice we are also proud to have grown into a sophisticated provider of primary health care services with 35 sites across Alameda Contra Costa and Solano counties.
