Valley Community Healthcare (VCH) is a nonprofit community health organization providing high-quality primary and specialty services at little or no cost to patients. Founded in 1970 as a counseling center and free clinic, VCH quickly became a pioneer in the region's response to HIV/AIDS and one of the earliest providers of dedicated teen health services. Today, it is a well‑established Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) operating two full‑service clinics – its flagship North Hollywood site and its North Hills clinic.
VCH employs approximately 250 staff and operates with an annual budget of roughly $33 million. Most of its revenue historically comes from programs such as Medicare and Medi‑Cal. In 2025, VCH will provide more than 62,000 primary care visits across its clinics, continuing its long‑standing commitment to keeping the San Fernando Valley healthy and connected.
