Every year, SBCHC’s Fall Harvest Luncheon generates funds that are crucial to the development and support of our patient-centered community engagement, enabling services, and education and wellness programs. Programs such as outreach to the homeless population, nutrition and diabetes management support, and free cancer screenings can lead to behavioral and lifestyle changes that realize our mission “to increase the number of healthy families in our community by providing high quality, comprehensive health services.”

Spring Branch Community Health Center has been a key provider of primary health services to the Greater Houston area since we opened our doors in May 2004.  As a Federally Qualified Health Center offering Pediatric Care, Adult Care, Women’s Health, Dental Care, Behavioral Health Services, and Nutrition Counselling, we are a part of the community we serve and remain committed to each patient who walks through our doors. Last year alone, we provided healthcare services to over 25,436 individual patients across 84,578 visits and referred many more individuals to vital social services, including 490 families who found secure homes through our housing assistance programs.
