About Us
Community Medical Centers, Inc. (CMC) began in the 1960's as a
volunteer effort of the San Joaquin Medical Society, the San Joaquin
Local Health District and the Community Action Council. Local
physicians, nurses, dentists and community activists who recognized
the lack of health and social services programs formed service teams
to address the needs of migrant farm workers and their families. The
providers went out to the fields and worked from their cars to deliver
medical care, to supply food and clothing and to link families with
available services. In 1967, the San Joaquin Medical Society received
state and federal funding to support the development of two small
facilities, as well as mobile clinics to provide services throughout
the county. From these early beginnings, CMC has grown to provide
comprehensive primary and preventive care at eleven clinical sites in
the counties of San Joaquin, Solano, and Yolo. |
