La Clinica de La Raza
Community health worker job in Pittsburg, CA
Who we are: La Cl nica de La Raza is a community-based health center committed to providing culturally appropriate, high-quality, and accessible health care to the diverse communities of the San Francisco Bay Area. We have spent over 40 years advocating for and creating a health home for the many that have been denied access to care. As health care activists, we are dedicated to making sure individuals who do not have health coverage get the same level of quality healthcare as those who have it. From our genesis as a communityhealth center in 1971, we understood that we cannot heal our communities without also addressing the economic and social factors that affect health. Many times, this requires that we go outside and provide services in other settings to build the bridge that links individuals to our health center for preventive and primary care. Over 90,000 individuals come to La Cl nica because it is a welcoming place that addresses the whole person, coordinating and connecting them to a broad network of services to improve and maintain their health and well-being. While we are still known for our activism and spirit of social justice, we are also proud to have grown into a sophisticated provider of primary health care services with 35 sites across Alameda, Contra Costa and Solano counties.
Be a wellness ambassador: At a time when our communities are responding to intensified challenges, it becomes more important than ever that those who can use their voice to educate and activate others to step forward.

As a Health Educator at La Cl nica, you will build upon our strong legacy, serving an ever more diverse population, and working shoulder to shoulder with some of the most dedicated community educators you'll meet. Maybe you already know the power of community education to transform because you've seen it in your own life. Maybe communityhealthcare, like the care we offer at La Cl nica, made it possible for you to have medical care growing up. If you are passionate about transforming our communities into healthy and empowered spaces, La Cl nica is the place for you. We are seeking Health Educators who have discovered the power of their voice, who get activated when they're teaching and sharing information with others, and who are passionate about wellness. Yes, you will work hard at La Cl nica, but the sense of teamwork, and our dedication to giving our diverse community the high-quality services they deserve, will inspire you to do amazing work.
