By providing direct care services that dignify and encourage client involvement in decision-making about health care, WFHC is cultivating a new generation of women and families that have the knowledge and resources to make healthy decisions. In 1974, a small group of dedicated community leaders and health care providers came together and started the Women’s Health Care Project as part of a larger
social justice movement in Santa Monica, California. What is now Westside Family Health Center expanded to include prenatal care, pediatric services, adolescent health care and a family practice program that includes a strong healthy aging component. For 47 years we have been an integral part of the Westside community, serving low-income men, women, children, and the uninsured population. Last year, in 2019, we saw 12,905 patients in 31,299 visits.
