Over 25 Years of Supporting Health Equity

Since 1996, DCPCA has set the course for high quality, sustainable, accessible primary health care for all in the District of Columbia. More than ever before, primary care is at the heart of the effort to rewrite the District’s health story, and the survival and success of community health centers remains critical to a successful and thriving city. 

Since our founding we have been at the forefront of strengthening the District’s primary care system. Through or numerous advocacy efforts and resource development programs we have expanded and improved primary health care services for residents.
