Serving Kansas City’s
underserved
for over 30 years
Family Health Care began with the mission of providing health care for the poor. We chose to triage the most pressing health concerns and have focused on caring for those who have the least options- people with HIV and other serious illnesses, uninsured pregnant women and other needy populations. FHC located in the Eastern side of Wyandotte County and now in the Turner area because of the concentration of poverty and health needs in this area.
