Who was Samuel Dixon? 
Reverend Samuel Dixon was a long-time Val Verde resident and minister who offered healthcare to local residents at his church during the 1970s. Our first health center, in Val Verde, was established in 1980 in response to the lack of healthcare and women’s healthcare services available to low-income African-American and Latino congregants. Since that time, SDFHC has evolved into a health safety-net service provider and is recognized as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) with two additional health center sites added in Canyon Country and Newhall, two outreach programs on the campus of the California Institute of the Arts and the College of the Canyons, a dental added to our Newhall location and mental health programs established in Newhall, Canyon Country, and Valencia.

Our Mission: To provide for the health and well-being of all patients by offering high-quality, culturally sensitive, affordable, and accessible primary care services.
