The organization is a community-based, NON-profit agency that operates 32 medical, dental, and school-based health centers throughout seattle and provides services to over 61,000 people each year. Our clinics are located throughout areas of king county that have the highest rates of uninsured families and the greatest ethnic diversity. Integrated healthcare services are provided on a sliding FEE scale for the uninsured, and no one is ever turned AWAY due to inability to pay. We are uniquely skilled in providing culturally responsive services to our diverse patient population, which includes patients who speak more than 100 different languages and dialects and represent many cultural groups. We provide services to residents of urban seattle and surrounding areas. Our target population consists of the urban poor, uninsured, medicaid eligible, homeless, recent immigrants, NON-english speaking, as well as those who are isolated from services due to transportation or cultural barriers.
