Unity Health Care, Inc. (Unity) was founded in 1985 as Health Care for the Homeless Project (HCHP) providing primary health care services to homeless individuals and families that resided in local emergency shelters or on the streets of the District of Columbia. In 1996, the organization expanded when it became the Federal government’s emergency grantee for the Community Health Center Programs, which expanded our patient base to include the underserved, uninsured and working poor residents of the city. Unity’s mission is to offer a continuum of medical care and human services to homeless and medically underserved people in the District of Columbia. |
