Indian Health Center of Santa Clara Valley (IHC) was founded in 1977, as an Urban Indian Health Program. Today, IHC is dually funded by the Indian Health Service (IHS) and the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), empowering IHC to serve over 23,000 patients annually, regardless of race, ethnicity, or ability to pay, while continuing to specialize in the unique health care needs of American Indians and Alaskan Natives (AI/AN).

With over 280-staff, IHC provides whole-person care, including Medical, Dental, Counseling, Wellness and Prevention services to all patients, who represent some of the most economically disadvantaged communities in Santa Clara County. These services can be accessed seamlessly via the IHC Mobile Clinic, or any of four clinical sites, including a Pediatric Center and Family Medicine Center, where thirty Stanford Medicine Residents provide exceptional care.

Ancillary services addressing the unique health care needs of AI/AN of all ages, are provied by Inter-Tribal Resources, Counseling Prevention Services and Community Wellness and Outreach departments, all led and provided by upstanding members of the local Urban Indian community.

Your support is crtitical to our ongoing ability to provide this care.

Thank you in advance,
