Our History

FHCSD is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization rich in history and tradition. In 1911, the San Diego Industrial School was built on the site where our first clinic now stands. This school eventually transformed into a settlement house that provided Barrio Logan's immigrant residents with dearly needed social services. When it was announced that the city was closing the building in October 1970, Laura Rodriguez and a group of community members attended a Barrio Logan Community Action Committee meeting where they passionately advocated that the location should continue to function as a community health clinic. When their request was quickly rejected, the group occupied the building in protest.

After eight days of negotiations the City of San Diego and the community leaders reached a resolution. This led to the gifting of the building to the people of Barrio Logan and the establishment of a free clinic. Medical care delivery began two evenings a week, and the health center saw approximately 150 patients each month. This building became our flagship clinic, Logan Heights Family Health Center, and we're proud to honor our heritage by continuing to increase access to quality health care in San Diego. Over the past several decades FHCSD has transformed into one of the 10 largest Federally Qualified Health Centers in the country and will continue to grow while we strive to meet the needs of our community.
