Join us for an evening at Yoshi's to celebrate 50 Years of Health Care for all.

This year’s gala pays tribute to an important milestone for La Clínica. In 1971, a group of UC Berkeley students and community activists came together to address the lack of affordable and culturally appropriate health care for monolingual Spanish-speaking residents in East Oakland.  For five decades, La Clínica de La Raza has worked to improve the quality of life for communities by providing accessible health care for all. 

Today, La Clínica has grown into one of the largest community health centers in California and the first choice for multilingual, full-scope health care services in the East Bay, regardless of a patient’s income level or insurance status. La Clínica now has 34 sites in Alameda, Contra Costa, and Solano counties and provides high quality, culturally appropriate services to over 70,000 patients.

As we reflect on the impact of our work over the last 50+ years, join us in applauding La Clínica’s continued resolve and commitment to health equity and social justice.

Jane García, La Clínica CEO
Aisha Hampton-Bowser, Board Member and Development Committee Chairwoman
