About Us

菠菜网lol正规平台’s Healthy Development Community Clinic (HDCC) provides services that support holistic wellness for children, youth, and families, while also giving graduate and undergraduate students opportunities for field-specific and interdisciplinary training.

Through primary prevention and early intervention, we seek to reduce stigma, foster mental wellness, and increase community connection through culturally-responsive services. We seek to create safe spaces for children, youth, and families to find support and a sense of community, with the goal of promoting equity by improving access to care and reducing health disparities.

The 5 components of HDCC are community education, student training, research, fund development, and administration

Our Mission 

菠菜网lol正规平台’s Healthy Development Community Clinic (HDCC) serves as a vital link between 菠菜网lol正规平台 resources and the Santa Clara County community, offering free services, education, and resources to foster health equity and holistic well-being for under-resourced children, youth, and families.

How we serve the community:

  • Provide high-quality physical, psychological, communicative, and relational wellness through screenings, brief assessments, short-term services, education, and referrals.
  • Community-centered and locally networked - we create programs and services based on community-needs assessments, and we partner with local organizations around San Jose
  • Offer culturally-sustaining and trauma-informed practices, building on clients' existing strengths, protective factors, social supports, and cultural resources.
  • Create interprofessional internships and practica for 菠菜网lol正规平台 students.
  • Bridge physical, cognitive, and socio-emotional domains.
  • Research-to-practice implementation for 菠菜网lol正规平台 students and faculty.

We do not collect information about documentation status or health insurance. We believe children, youth, and families deserve equal access to care. There is no charge to you for HDCC services.
