Company DescriptionMission:

"Marin City Health and Wellness Center provides innovative health and wellness services to all, with the goal of African American Health Equity."

We provide wraparound healthcare to patients of all ages and ethnicities at clinics in Marin City and Bayview Hunters Point in San Francisco. Our Women’s Center in San Rafael is scheduled to open in 2022.

Social Determinants of Health
The Social Determinants of Health connect environments where people are born, live, learn, work, play, worship and age to a wide range of health and quality-of-life outcomes and risks. In simple terms, this means that poverty makes people sick: there is a direct correlation between health and wealth, and poverty and illness. Low-income minority neighborhoods tend to have fewer green spaces, streetlights, bike paths and sidewalks, playgrounds, and full-service grocery stores.Company DescriptionMission:\r
