THE ORGANIZATION

A stable and growing Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC), the San Francisco Community Health Center (SFCHC), has pioneered many innovative healthcare and advocacy programs serving, perhaps, the most vulnerable and stigmatized populations in the US, including the LGBTQ community and the unhoused. 

With growing revenues and recognition from high level elected officials, major foundations - and a recent transformative gift commitment in the tens of millions of dollars from two of the world’s most prominent philanthropists - the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) will collaborate with a very supportive Board of Directors, CEO, leadership team and other major stakeholders to steward major expansion of SFCHC’s services to the community.

From a national perspective, for over 30 years, the SFCHC has provided HIV/AIDS-related capacity building and HIV prevention programming assistance services to nonprofits and healthcare provider organizations in the US, Pacific Islands, and US territories. The health center's expert trainers and consultants improve and strengthen the workforce supporting clients and patients with HIV.

Due to executive management’s consideration of staff in key decisions, the organization has a high-trust culture which enables the health center’s positive organizational performance.
