SACHS is committed to providing accessible whole person patient centered health care to our communities and educating future health care professionals.
We empower our patients and their families to live vibrant and healthy lives through culturally responsive, exceptional care.
OUR HISTORY OF SERVICE
Social Action Corps (SAC) began in the late 1960s as an outreach effort from students and staff at Loma Linda University and Medical Center. Over the course of 30 years these volunteers offered temporary medical clinics in donated spaces within the community.
Early 1990’s – SAC began to look for a permanent location and by 1992 Norton Air Force Base was closing and provided an opportunity for SAC to acquire a medical facility.
SAC incorporated into a 501(c)(3) community health care corporation and became Social Action Community Health System (SACHS) with three-Clinic System of community clinics in the City of San Bernardino.
SACHS receives Teaching Health Center Graduate Medical Education Program designation for Family Medicine, Pediatrics and Psychiatry resulting in one of the nation's largest programs
