Our History
Family Health Centers of San Diego (FHCSD) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a rich history and tradition. In 1911, the San Diego Industrial School was built on the site where our first clinic now stands. Over time the school became a settlement house that provided Barrio Logan’s immigrant residents with medical treatment and social services. The support systems strengthened the neighborhood, and by 1940 Barrio Logan had become one of the largest Mexican American communities on the West Coast.
In October 1970, the city announced plans to close the location. In response Laura Rodriguez and a group of community members began to passionately advocate that the building should continue to function as a health clinic. When the request was quickly dismissed, they immediately organized a sit-in to protest the closure and began to occupy the former school.
After eight days, the group succeeded in negotiations with the City of San Diego. This led to the gifting of the building to the community and the establishment of a free clinic where FHCSD’s flagship clinic now stands. Medical care delivery began two evenings a week, and the health center saw approximately 150 patients each month. FHCSD has since transformed into one of the largest health care systems in the country, and we are proud to be a pillar of support to those in need in the San Diego community.
