In 1970, a small free clinic opened its doors in Richmond’s historic Fan District with a radical mission: to provide compassionate, judgment-free health care to those least served. Born from the grassroots free university movement, Health Brigade—formerly Fan Free Clinic—became Virginia’s first free clinic.
From the earliest days, we’ve run toward the toughest public health issues, not away from them.
In the ‘70s, we fought for women’s access to contraception. In the ‘80s, we showed up for people dying of AIDS when no one else would. In the ‘90s, we became a lifeline for those affected by HIV/AIDS. We welcomed the transgender community long before it was politically safe to do so, and we expanded mental health care when others stood still.
Today, we offer integrated, person-centered care for mind, body, and spirit—because everyone deserves to be seen, heard, and healed.
We are Health Brigade. “Health” is what we do. “Brigade” is how we do it—fearlessly, urgently, together.
