HistoryToday, ICHS provides care to thousands of patients each year in nine locations throughout the region, but its journey started in very humble circumstances over four decades ago. ICHS' history is a story of the love, caring, commitment, and compassion that residents have for their community and for each other. In 1975, the Asian Community Health Clinic moved to the International District - and the International District (ID) Community Health Center was born. The ID Clinic, as many still call it, was the first of its kind in the nation to serve a diverse Asian population at one location. While much has changed in the more than four decades since ICHS opened its doors, its mission remains the same: To provide culturally- and linguistically-appropriate health services to anyone in need, including Asian Pacific Islanders, the unemployed, immigrants and refugees. Access to health care always makes for vibrant communities and strong families.SpecialtiesServices include: primary medical services, dental health services, onsite pharmacy and laboratory, behavioral health care and counseling, Suboxone treatment, Women, Infant and Children (WIC) nutrition program, health education and Traditional Chinese Medicine.
