Overview
Mission
Health Matters Clinic advances health equity by breaking down barriers to care and ensuring that everyone-regardless of income, housing status, or background-has the opportunity to live their healthiest life. Since 2020, the organization has provided mobile health outreach, street medicine, pop-up clinics, and mental health education, serving over 25,000 Angelenos across Los Angeles County. Programs focus on preventive care, screenings, wellness education, and connection to critical community resources.
What it reported doing in 2024
Program 1 - Mobile Health Outreach & Pop-Up Clinics Health Matters Clinic operates pop-up clinic events that bring preventive and primary care directly to underserved communities across Los Angeles County. Services include health screenings, vaccinations, chronic disease management, and connections to case management and mental-health resources. Since 2020, HMC has provided more than 25,000 encounters, helping uninsured and underinsured residents access life-saving care and avoid costly emergency-room visits. Program 2 - Mental Health & Wellness Education HMC promotes mental well-being through community workshops, peer-support sessions, wellness events and podcast series Unboxed. Programs normalize conversations around mental health, reduce stigma, and provide culturally affirming education and referrals. In 2024, the organization reached hundreds of participants through the Unboxed: Wellness Your Way that included suicide prevention training, talks on the eight dimensions of wellness and more. Program 3 - Volunteer & Community Engagement Initiatives HMC mobilizes a network of 800+ volunteers-including clinicians, students, and community health workers-to deliver care and health education at no cost. Volunteers receive training in community outreach, street medicine, and data collection to strengthen local health capacity. These initiatives foster leadership, workforce readiness, and sustained community impact.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 92% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
