About Us
Founded in 1996, DCPCA  is a non-profit health equity and advocacy organization dedicated to improving the health of DC's vulnerable residents by ensuring access to high quality primary health care, regardless of an ability to pay. As a leader in the health care community, we work to ensure that all residents of Washington, DC have the ability and opportunity to lead healthier lives - through increased health care coverage, expanded access, improved quality, workforce development, and enhanced communication.

Our membership currently includes 15 community health centers and community-based organizations located in the District of Columbia and the Maryland suburbs. Between them, our members own and operate nearly 60 health care delivery sites that serve approximately 200,000 residents. These members serve as our partners. Together, along with other community-based safety-net primary care providers committed to the DCPCA mission, we work to create a high quality, equitable, integrated health care system that gives every resident an opportunity for a full and healthy life.

Since our founding we have been at the forefront of strengthening the District's primary care system. Through or numerous advocacy efforts and resource development programs we have expanded and improved primary health care services for residents. Our broad portfolio of projects includes:
