Rose Avenue
Founded in Venice. Established for All
Support Our Flagship Location
OUR HERITAGE
Venice Family Clinic was founded in 1970 to provide basic medical care for free to people in Venice and surrounding communities who lacked access to health care. Volunteers worked out of a borrowed dental clinic.
TODAY
Today, Venice Family Clinic has 17 sites in communities from the Santa Monica Mountains to the South Bay, but the site at 604 Rose Avenue in Venice was our first permanent site. It serves as our flagship and a beacon in the community, exemplifying our model of care: to integrate comprehensive care and help our neighbors in need with access to quality health care that includes medical services, mental health care, substance use treatment programs, food access, health and wellness activities, and much more.
RENOVATION ON ROSE
604 Rose needed to be modernized to keep up with the state-of-the-art health care delivered by the expert staff at the Clinic. To commemorate the renovation and modernization of the now-named Chuck Lorre Rose Avenue Health and Wellness Center, we invite you to join us for a special community campaign to help us provide comprehensive care in this redesigned building.
