Student Run Homeless Clinics

The Student Run Health Clinics were founded in 1990 under the direction of Dr. Richard Usatine in the Department of Family Medicine at UCLA. The clinics are solely run by DGSOM medical students and supervised by licensed UCLA faculty and affiliated physicians. SRHC serves over 800 patients a year. Our services include preventive health, mental health, basic primary and urgent care, acute and chronic disease management, wound and foot care, referrals, immunizations, and more. In addition to medical care, SRHC works to empower these communities with patient education. Our Mission The SRHC's mission is to provide respectful, compassionate and high quality healthcare services to homeless adults, families, and children living in the greater Los Angeles area. The individuals we serve benefit by receiving free medical care from UCLA medical students and faculty physicians. The founders and clinic participants are dedicated to the health of the community.
