EmpowerHer

Programs Feature

We are excited to share that we have been awarded a grant by Gilead Sciences to support HIV prevention, anti-stigma efforts, and health equity for Black women and girls. SFCHC plans to use the funding to launch "EmpowerHer," a program aimed at providing comprehensive and affirming care to Black transgender women and girls across the country. Central to EmpowerHer is the establishment of SHE Boutique, offering a supportive space for Black transgender individuals to access fashion, accessories, beauty products, and health services. Additionally, our team will lead national advocacy efforts, aiming to secure funding and expand access to trans-centered programs and services while addressing anti-trans legislation. Our work is grounded in community-led design, evidence-based practices, and intersectional approaches, with the goal of creating a model that can be replicated and scaled nationwide to support the thriving of Black trans communities.

Policy Updates: Court Watch

Homelessness, Religious Freedom, and Preventive Care are on the Docket

Now more than ever, the role of the court has become instrumental in policy debates across varying issues—housing, healthcare, civil liberties, and much more. Thus, it should come to no surprise that SFCHC is monitoring two cases making their way through the courts that we wanted to make our clients, staff, and partners aware of.  

COURT

WATCH

SFCHC is proud to participate in the Take on Alzheimer's Campaign. We will be sharing out information about Alzheimer's and other dementias over the next several months on our website and social media. Alzheimer's disease can impact anyone—affecting not only the person diagnosed but also profoundly altering the lives of family and friends as they navigate the challenges of memory loss and cognitive decline together.

April 2024 Events Calendars



Check out our events for the month. Our calendars for the Community Living Room, Trans: Thrive, The Lotus Project, and more are available on our Calendar of Events.

San Francisco Community Health Center celebrates and attends to the health and wellness of the communities that define San Francisco—immigrant and communities of color, queer, trans, unhoused people, and all of us who are most impacted by oppression—through comprehensive medical, dental, and mental health services. We believe that health care starts with healing justice and meeting the basic needs of our communities. Our culturally informed services are designed by the very people we serve.
