Care in San Bernardino

Meeting People Where They Are

Our San Bernardino Street Medicine Teams increase access to healthcare for underserved communities, especially for people who are housing insecure. We meet people where they are, on the street, in encampments, in shelters, in rural areas, and who are otherwise excluded from traditional healthcare systems. We provide ongoing care for our patients.

We believe all people deserve quality healthcare, delivered with dignity.

WEAre Committed to Serving Historically Marginalized Communities

Map of locations served by the Wellness Equity Alliance street medicine team in San Bernardino including cities in San Bernardino proper, West, and High Desert.

San Bernardino is the largest county in the United States. It encompasses large areas that are both suburban and rural. In rural areas there is a distinct lack of health, wellness, and shelter resources for vulnerable populations. This creates a challenge to serve the people who have the highest needs and when encampment sweeps happen, we work diligently to find our patients, especially as many don’t have reliable means of communication. We do this by talking with our patients about potential secondary locations where we might reach them and by working with our partners and communities who also serve the same population.
