About UsThe Free Clinic of Simi Valley is a non-profit organization that provides medical care, counseling, dental services, legal guidance, and ophthalmology services to individuals and families in need. We do not receive payments from private or federally funded insurances and are funded entirely by grants and donations. The clinic provides compassionate person centered care to all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identification, race, religion, economic status, or housing status. The clinic is dedicated to providing essential services to those who lack access to traditional sources of care and has made a significant impact on the lives of many individuals and families. The dedication and hard work of our volunteers and small staff are the driving force behind the Clinic's success! |
Our History
The Free Clinic of Simi Valley was established in 1971 to provide medical services and counseling to those in need. Originally located in a donated space, the Clinic moved to a larger building in 1973 and expanded its services to include counseling as well as legal guidance.
Over the years, the Clinic has continued to grow, adding dental services, a licensed pharmacy, play therapy, and additional counseling rooms.
In 2020, the Clinic moved to a new state-of-the-art facility thanks to the County of Ventura and our generous donors. The Free Clinic Multi Services Center now houses the Clinic's services, including a nurses station, pharmacy, phlebotomist lab, exam rooms, dental stations, family counseling rooms, and legal offices.
Our new facility located at 2003 Royal Ave, Simi Valley, CA 93065, also provides space for other local non-profits, offering those in need access to not only medical services but community support services in one location through our Free Clinic of Simi Valley Multi Services Center.
The Clinic has received multiple awards, including being named a 2020 Nonprofit of the Year by the California State Legislature and meeting the Gold Standard for Transparency from GuideStar and the National Association of Free and Charitable Clinics.
