30 Years of Rural Health Care Advocacy
The North Coast Clinics Network (NCCN) is a consortium of community health centers working to improve the Health Outcomes of our under-served populations.
NCCN’s member clinics and health centers are working together to improve access to high quality medical, mental and dental health care for all people, regardless of their ability to pay, through information sharing, community education , shared administrative activities and direct service projects.
The North Coast Clinics Network’s twenty-nine Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) member locations span an area that encompasses five rural counties, Del Norte, Humboldt, Lake, Mendocino and Trinity, in the Northwest corner of California.
In 2023, NCCN members served over 122,176 unique individuals providing over 525,785 encounters.
