Description

CDCHC is a mission-driven health care organization dedicated to the needs of its community. Today, it operates two primary care clinics and one after-hours clinic designed to reduce inappropriate use of the emergency department. Carolyn Downs Family Medical Center was founded in 1968 by community activists committed to the ideal that health care is a right for all people. Medical clinic services were originally part of a broad spectrum of community services that was overseen and developed by the Seattle Black Panther party. Country Doctor Community Clinic was founded in 1971 by a group of community activists who recognized the need for medical care services in their neighborhood. Originally operating from an abandoned fire station in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle, Country Doctor was an all-volunteer free clinic offering services only in the evenings. As the community’s reliance on the clinic’s services grew, Country Doctor evolved into a respected primary care provider.
